IS this a true chameleon species?
Im confused. she had 3 lil horns on her head.
 
Common name: Flapjack Chameleon or Poroto 3 Horn Chameleon
Latin name: Chameleo trioceros fuelleborni

Here is the AdCham link on the species: http://www.adcham.com/html/taxonomy/species/chfuelleborni.html

I have not worked with the fuellie's, but they should be kept like any other montane chameleon.
Basking spot: 80-85F (no higher)
Humidity 80%+ (this is crucial to her health!)


What else specifically do you need to know?

thank you, she is a real interesting creature. She is Wc,
I traded a pair of cresteds for her,
Her flaps are crazy,
are these rare?
 
You do need a male now! Considering the time of year and the fact that she is WC she may already be gravid.

I wouldn't call the fuellie's rare by any stretch as they are exported in somewhat high numbers annually. Because almost all are WC not many survive the importation and acclimation process so they seem more rare than they are. They certainly aren't like the ubiquitous pardalis and calyptratus though!

I'd like to see a pic of your new gal!

Congrats!

Does your 619 mean you're in San Diego? I just saw some Ch. fuelleborni at a shop here yesterday.

Im here in Spring valley.
I picked her up at pet kingdom by the sports arena.:)

I thought maybe you were born in June 1919. :rolleyes:

I was there yesterday but didn't look close enough to see if there were any males. Make sure she gets lots of water. I go in there several times a week and it's been a while since I saw anything wet in those cages.
 
Yea im gettin her hydrated.
and there were no males left.
I would of gotten a male.
They are getting another shipment tomorrow.
