My 1st Chameleon

Hello everyone.
It is my pleasure to introduce you to my 5 1/2 month old Blue Bar Ambelobe chameleon (Sired by Weiler) that I recieved yesterday from Michael @ FL Chams.
The idea of getting a chameleon for a pet came from my dear daughter after she decided if Rapunzel had one she must have one. Now I don't know about most people, I can't say no to my kids in these kinds of situations. For two weeks before ordering the chameleon, I was doing extensive research on the topic via internet. In the process I called many people (some from the sponsor list of this site) and I have to say that the most help and advice I got was from Bruce @ Chameleon Paradice and Michael @ FL Chams.
The process of getting things right was tough, since my family is a first time reptile owner. But nevertheless with the help from the guys I just mentioned, it worked out. And it worked out so, that now me my wife and kids, decided to get atleast 3 more chameleons. Sounds crazy but we are totaly mezmorised by these amazing colorfull "tree monkeys" as Bruce calls them. Therefore the next chameleon will probably be a Nosy Faly form Chameleon Paradice, then a Ambanja, Nosy Be, Sambava, Ankaramy, Tamatave, and deffinately a Parsons chameleon.
I hope that all breeders and owners love their animals and take good care of them, providing them with all they need and lots of love!

Welcome to the forum, Glen!

These magnificent creatures are definitely mesmerizing in so many ways. I too have a 5 1/2 month old ambilobe roughly about the same size. You've definitely done your research on how to care for them and I'd like to thank you for that. If you ever need any help or have any questions, please feel free to do a search or post your questions on here. We have a great community that will have no problem helping should any problems arise.
 
Thank you for your warm welcome!!! Hopefully I will be able to participate and contribute to the well being of these magnificent animals.
 
Hi Glen, welcome to our world. I remember back to when I had just one chameleon. Then, at one point 25 adults, give or take a couple. Now it varies. But my fascination and love for them never dims. I hope your family never dims on their love.
 
That's awesome! Congratulations on discovering one of the most fascinating creatures on Earth.

You'll soon find yourself neglecting your favorite TV shows so that you can spend that time staring at your chameleons. OR, is that just me??? :D
 
Dear members of the forum, another question that I would like to address is; the size and color patterns of my chameleon, what are your thoughts? Please commen. Thank you!
 
Welcome and may I say you have a beautiful chameleon. Best of luck and enjoy!
