I have never bought from them but I have sold them a pair of chams before. Sandy and Elliot were very easy to work with when I sold them the chams. They have really really nice chams and have bred and raised some really cool species. I wouldnt hesitate a bit to buy from them if they had something that I was interested in.
I say you have no worries when purchasing from them IMO.
I have bought chams, butter worms, and supplies from Chameleons Northwest over the last several years. You won't find a more dedicated breeder in the business, I have been to their breeding facility many times.
I am currently purchasing 2 of their better built 24 x 24 x 48 Penn Plax Reptology cages, and a new Ambilobe.
Elliot and Sandy are honest, follow-through people, who you can trust.
That's where I got my baby boy Nosy Be from! They are nice people who know what they are doing. Also, they offered phone support (I'm a new Cham owner) and they have followed through. I have called a couple of times to ask questions and Sandy is always ready to help out.
Plus if you're close, you can drive to their facility and pick one out in person! I drove there and got to look around at all their cool chameleons. They had a lot of cute veiled chameleons when I was there a month ago picking up Steve.
So in conclusion, they are really nice! Good luck choosing!
i like that chams nw are breeding for "richer" colors on the veileds.
to be fair i only dealt with lll at a repticon and bought some supplies
so i have not purchased any live animals from them.
