    Senegal gender?

    Here' some pics of my freerange Senegal. Male or female? I don't often even find him but he? goes from the dense cover to ground level a lot, not sure why. He looks healthy to me, usually bright pale green with many red dots. When i see him i drop some wax worms which he eats. Comments welcome.

    Free range

    Kind of an unusual question. I'm free ranging some Chams in a small greenhouse [lean to, 15'wide x 8' deep x 7'high]. Has a few big Fiddle leaf figs, corn plant and many other plants and some vines. Currently I have 2 Senegals [unsure of sex] and a male and female Dwarf Fishers. I've had them...

    Cham behaviour

    Was misting my new cham [Senegal] and as soon as the water hit him he ran [well moved at a snails pace away from me]. Are most chams afraid of getting wet? My anoles run like hell when i mist so it may be a lizard thing, I thought on a hot day [96 in the GH] water would welcome.

So waiting 20 minutes for assistance the girl says do you have a cage for him? I said i have a Greenhouse for him to free-range in. She says i can't sell you the lizard...

    force feeding

    Any tips on how to get cham to open his mouth to try to get a syringe with food in? Scareing him only works for one moment and is not repeatable. Tryiny to force their mouth open seems tough. Spraying water is not working either.

    cham feeding frenzy

    The wanderer

    He roams around, around, around. You'd think Yoshi would be happy; TWO trees and some tasty crickets. But NOOOOOOOOOOO, he plots a jail break and escapes to neighbors wysteria and my evergreen about 30' away. Son in law spotted him about 8' up in tree. Here's his escape rout [he assisted in...

    Strange behavior

    Yoshi my @ 1 y/o veiled has decided to try cannibalism. After downing about 10 small crickets, I noticed him shoot at his own tail. I thought a cricket had gotten on it but he did it again. This time he dragged his tail back to his mouth and started munching on his shedding skin. Is this normal...
