Oh my, suprise BABIES!

[Doodleh]

Today I went to mist my little side striped cham, and found 12 tiny babies! sadly 3 died, but the other 9 seem healthy and are running around.
Quite lucky, because she was sold to me as a male!
This is one of the little ones, I didn't want to take too many photos just yet!
Will take some more in the next few days I'm so excited.

Congratulations on your 9 healthy babies! It's incredible how they handle themselves at just a few hours old. Very cute.

BITAN POWER!

Bitans are the bestest chams! Congrats on that litter... it's an average size for the true bitaeniatus. I can see lots of males in the pics you've posted so far.

In my experience, the bitans can be kept together as babies. This species seems to be a more sociable chameleon than the rest of the species in the complex. That said, I found I had better success with the bitans if kept in smaller groups. They eat right away so make sure you've got lots of FF's on the way and cultured. Keep the temps low and the humidity high and you should be good to go!

Have fun with the new kids. I call dibs on all of them!
Cheers!

Hehe! Yes, and I got her half price because I'm friends with the person who I bought her from! He'll be kicking himself, maybe I should try sell him the babies? or would that be harsh? Lol.

Just to let the people who were interested in these babies know, I am in the UK, and would probably only be able to offer them to people in the UK!
Trace, the babies are great, eating fine and have attitude already, I can't go near them without getting hissed at!
Mum's fine, eaten herself stupid and now just relaxing.
