A very unusual looking but quite beautiful Ambanja!. You do not see many with that much red. Where did he come from? The other lizard is also awesome. I love the blue! What do they eat? I am afraid to ask!! I don't know why people comment on some threads and not others. Don't be sad!

Uhoh, I think the second Queen of Chams commented now!
He is from Kaleidoscope chameleons, I have seen a few of his brothers on the forum.
Some people have said they seem to be a tamatave cross but I personally believe ambanjas can have a lot of red, just as they can have tons of blue. I think it just depends on what breeders breed for lol!
Also they do eat mice- hoppers to be precise, but only every other week. I feed mostly dubia, crickets, superworms, and most any other feeder I can get my hands on. I can't lie though, I do like watching them eat the hoppers, not because I like the killing by any means but just watching the shear power of the monitors eat is cool to me.

Wow, love the reds on that ambjamba! Hmm, monitors, I love the sleek body design and the patterns-what's the general care for one o' those babies? Just asking
A very large setup is typical. My setup now is small and it's 3x2x5. He is doing great in it so far though
. He will get a bigger enclosure in a couple of months. He eats hopper mice, crickets, dubia roaches mainly. Needs a temperature gradient of about 80-110 degrees and a basking spot at about 125 degrees! With humidity at about 60-80% with a nesting box at about 80% + at all times to help them shed.
