Flapjacks

[dj special k]

I recently came across some flapjacks (fuelleborni) or 3-horned chams.... I was trying to search for any information on here that people might have of previous experience with them and I couldn't find it. Does anybody have any experience with them? I have a male and a female which I don't know their ages, but I know they aren't full grown. They might be along the lines of 4-6 months I'm guessing.

This is what Ido know about them:

Temps 55-85F

Humidity 80-100%

They're live bearing. The male has 3 bigger horns than the female (which i read somewhere that this will be more pronounce and identifiable at around 4 months when the horns start to grow longer than the females)

These are my questions:

1. As rudis' chams, are they communal chameleons? Can I house my male and female in the same cage?

2. Besides the temperature range,humidity and their live birth... is there anything else different in terms of care and need for them that differs from caring for veileds?

oh man. not a very popular species of chams huh... sucks. lol

They just aren't readily available here in Canada.

I had a few years ago...but it was when I was still fairly new to keeping chameleons and I hesitate to tell you how I think I kept them then...if you know what I mean.

I kept some and I housed them all seperate they dident seem to like each other. As far as care goes though they are the same as rudis/jacksoni they like it cool but they do like a small basking area, himidity should be very high.

and a note on rudis, although i have heard from others that rudis can be kept in colonies i have only been able to have 2 females togeather once a male was mixed in with one or two femails there was extreem aggression, even mating was fast and then turned bad quickly. I would not recomend the comunal caging my rudis did much better individually. but thats just me.

here are two females
