Calling All Fischer's keepers

[Mason]

Hello everyone I have now owned my first chameleon (my Fischer named Jasper) for over a month now and I can honestly say it was the best purchase I have ever made.

I absolutely love him. He eats great with his staple feeder being dubia roaches and drinks lots. I would love to see everyone else's Fischer chams or any montane species for that matter.

Also if anyone has any expertise on the Fischer's I would love to know what sub species mine is.

All I know is he was wild caught a while ago then kept in captivity for a year before I picked him up and added him to the family. He was very shy at first but now that he is accustomed to his home he is enjoying life

Here are some pictures of my guy. Hope you all enjoy and can show me some of your guys

That's wild so a Fischer isn't a Jackson's -- your's doesn't have Horns vs. Jackson's have sharp/hard horn.

Is that a bone or a strong skin or a flexible bone? I wonder what they use it for since it's not sharp.

I know it isn't a Jacksons?? and the horn is very hard and tough but does not have a point like you said. I believe it is bone but don't quote me on that

Do you know if this is his full size? I will include a picture to show off his size. Also do you have a guess at how old he is?

 

[ponders]

Yes, he is full grown. Probably over 2 years old.

They are an interesting species. I had some for a while and enjoyed them. I have pictures in my gallery if you want to see some.
