Two days in the box is not cool but when packaged well the chameleons are fine. Still, shame on FedEx! Poor chameleon! We are so glad he is doing well!

My boy is growing fast and getting some beautiful colors! Pictures can never do him justice. This is today he's a little cranky and getting ready to shed!
Awwww so handsome! what locale is he?

Since that boy FedEx nearly pushed me to have a stroke or a coronary! One little guy took 3.5 days go get to his end destination! We had every airport and FedEx hub along the route in a uproar! No one could find the box! At last the box was found and he was alive and well! Wow, I am so glad for all the hours of research I have done with packaging materials and my remote wireless thermometer! It sure is paying off! To date we have not had a single chameleon die from shipping!

Remote wireless thermometer?!?!??

Yup, no experiments were ever done on any living creatures! My thermometer gave me all the data I needed while the box was either in the freezer or oven (winter and summer extremes in the USA) in an attempt to closely simulate any potential temperatures the package may encounter in route. The goal was to see how long I can extend a chameleon comfortable environment inside the box during both extremes!

I remember the exciment of waiting for shipment. I was non-stop looking at pictures of Merlin and the few I had of my guy from Matt. Still when people ask what his colors will look like when he's older I show them Merlin's picture.
