Three legged pygmy chameleon. Extra care needed?

and another of their home

Penny, unfortunately, is not the same species as Tricycle. He is a Rieppeleon brevicaudatus or Bearded Pygmy Chameleon and she is a Rhampholeon temporalis or Usambara Pitted Pygmy Chameleon.

In reality I don't advocate mixing species but with the pygmies it probably isn't that critical. However it may come to a point where these two are not getting along or you find the opposite sex for either one and you will have to separate them.

I agree, she is a temporalis and almost seems abut gravid if not very plump.

Thanks guys and girls, i had no clue and both were happily cohabiting the same terrarium at work. Bad on my part for assuming they were.

I will certainly be having words in our animal room at work.

Thanks again

Dave

R. temporalis and R. spectrum are my favorites! Just the best little leaves with attitudes!
