I will, but I have a head start with a baby PANTHER… anyone wanna trade for, uh, maybe a melleri?
Not much between panthers and Parsons, but a huge price gap.
I have never heard of this, thank you for sharing. Do you know is there would be any common symptoms of stress? All are eating and drinking fine, showing healthy growth and generally avoiding each other.
Right now I’m mostly observing, and (for now) leaving them together. I DIY’ed a massive enclosure (20”x64”x76”) with dividers that can be placed in it to separate at any time. If they continue living peacefully together, I will leave them, but as soon as I see bullying they will be separated...
I have a group of 7-week old panthers, (not 100% sure but) majority males, and I have noticed some interesting interactions between them.
At 1-3 weeks old, the babies would often crawl over each other. Not purposefully, but just to get from point A to point B. The crawled-upon cham would get...
Interesting! Very cool how these guys have such diverse personalities, I think most people associate reptiles with a sort of coldness… even I was pleasantly surprised by Leo.

Clea is short for Cratesiclea, who was the wife of Leonidas II of Sparta, and I will name one of their baby boys Cleomenes as he was their heir. Perhaps I will keep a girl too and name her Chilonis.
It just kinda snowballed, and...
Forgot to note:
- slimmer, slightly shorter tail
- no sign of male colours (could just be the individual- still supports female tho)
- shorter rostral crest (something I’ve noticed in mine)
- less severe crest and casque
I’ll ad to similar cases- my female came to me with a similar lump on her casque. Only one, hasn’t grown or shrunk at all, even with taking her off synthetic supplements (sunlight and calcium only, treating gular edema).
I’ve looked, and she has no other lumps, no other issues, just a little...
