So I got a fantastic care package from Chad yesterday! We were trying to hit a hole in the weather and JUST did. I was super stressed as was Chad that the cold front in norcal or the return of the heat in AZ would cause problems in shipping. They got here safe and sound and super active!! Chad did a great job packing them up and I also got some baby stick insects from him that I have been after for a year:cool::D All I have right now are a couple of bad cell phone shots but I will post up beauty shots later;)

The female is from the first clutch hatched (11/04/2011) and is around 21g

The Male is from a more recent clutch hatched (02/13/2012) and is around 4g

These guys are Just AWESOME!! Now who do I talk to about getting into the Kinyongia club:D

They look awesome!! Wish i had more room and $!

Thanks Jon! I can honestly say I am smitten with them. They are easily 3x as active as my panthers. They are still in temporary housing and I can't wait till tomorrow when I can get them into something more permanent ;)
 
Welcome to the club!:) They are awesome. Congrats!

Congrats! They look great! Yes, you need to learn the secret handshake!LOL

Congrats Rob! I knew you got the K. Matschiel but when I read your title I though you also got some monkey tail skinks (prehensile skink). :eek: If you ever do want any of those Dr. Alfonso raises them. They are one of his favorite reptiles. That will have to be after you add your second reptile room. ;)

What a gorgeous pair! I am loving your little girl. Are they related?

Thanks guys!!

that's funny about the skink's I am not sure I have seen those before, they sound interesting.
Chad always calls them monkey tail chams because their tails are so freakishly long:D It's funny because I was excited before they came but now that they are here I am even more excited...it's like getting my first cham all over again:cool:

Here I am with a young one of Dr. Alfonso's and if you are interested some of the members start talking about them on down in the thread.

Nice!! I cant believe how big that female is compared to mine and Tylene's!! They are really cool chams. Tell Seeco to put you on the mailing list.
 
So I guess I must have done something wrong since my K.Mats thread got moved to photo while all the others that got these gems are still in the Kinyongia section. :eek::eek:

Anyway, finally got these guys into their "permanent" enclosures this Friday and spent some time while transferring them to shoot a few photos. Hope you enjoy:cool:

I name all my animals after mountains as you may have noticed so these guys are NO different. We tried to stay in the general region and named the male Meru and the Female Loleza.

Loleza:

Sorry Tylene and Jared, Rob deserved my biggest holdback. Loleza is by far the biggest and my next biggest is barely over half her size.

I'm glad your enjoying the chams Rob! I've got plenty more so PM me if anyone is interested.
 
Awesome! Easily one of my favorite chameleons ever! One of the best demeanor chameleons as well!

Mike, that's what you told me when I bought one of the sires of these from you 5 years ago! Thanks for the great referral, they have been a pleasure to work with.

Thanks again Chad! You have done amazing work with this species.


They definitely look great. I love mine!! No prob, Chad. Mine are growing steadily, thats all that matters:)

That's all I can ask for too ;) the female is a BEAST though :cool:

Awesome! Easily one of my favorite chameleons ever! One of the best demeanor chameleons as well!

Thanks Michael!! They are really a cool species! That little male already has my wife wrapped around his little finger:D The female seems very shy so far but am sure she will come around.

Gorgeous looking new additions you have there, congrats :D

Thanks David!
 
Theyre awesome for sure!!! I love the little male. 1 question though, how do you sex these as to me they look very similar?
