Bradypodion spinosum

[Dyesub Dave]

Hey .. I saw a picture of Bradypodion spinosum on this forum and think that they're AWESOME! I found a bit of info on the net about them but not much. I was just wondering if this species is fairly common in the hobby or if it's rather difficult to find?

I live in Canada and don't see many different species of chameleons where I live. Mostly just Veileds and Panthers!

Thanks ... Dyesub Dave.

Verry difficult to aquire in the USA, and there are none in Canada, If there were I'd be really surprised. Contact Chris Anderson if you have questions. He's been keeping one or two for the last while. Only 19 were Exported out of Africa in 2006, which was the supply available regardless for where you are from.

OK ... Thanks Will. Do you know of any reports of them being captive bred?

Check out a bradypodian thamnobates! Got to be the best looking little cham out there but from my research they are impossible to get. They are supposed to be easy to raise also. Most of the Bradypodion are really cute animals. I wish someone would start raising them again. There used to be a guy in alabama that had a few hundred of them. I contacted him this weekend and he is no longer breeding them or even has any. Doesn't think anybody does. Good luck David
