The chams

NBLADE · 02-13-13, 04:54 PM

Chameleons always interested me, and i got right into them, i specialized in breeding veiled chams for many years and probably bred more than 1000 over the years. I thought i'd show some of my breeders and some of the other species aswell.

I love panthers. Definitly my favourite but the nice ones are pretty expensive. I also like the Jackson's because they look like little dinosaurs. Great pics

Thanks. I always preferred the yemens over the panthers, but you do get some stunning panthers, and the jacksons are very cool looking animals, it is a shame they stress easier than most species, and the temperature requirements can be a little tricky to get right, but they have a great look too them,

Yea but I think with everything if you know what your going into you can handle it. It also depends on the specific animal too I think.

Yea once the set up is right it's fine, and aslong as you get a good one, sometimes they come in a bit ropey and a bit over stressed and can be hard to pull them back round, but when they come in good, they are great.

Yep I admittedly never owned a Chameleon because thy are too big for my parents. Which I don't understand why it matters but anyway.... I did so much research on them just because I like them that I know a lot about them. I pretty much all the basics and a lot more. Lol I've forgotten some of it as it was a year ago but I still know most of it. Lol

That tongue shot of the panther is amazing! Talk about good timing...

Wow, I'm catching on that you have quite the collection of all sorts of animals at your place! Lucky! These chameleons are all beautiful. I can't decide which one I like best!

GarterPython · 02-13-13, 10:25 PM

Blue Bars have always been one of y favourite panthers so that would have to take the spot f my favourite that is shown there.

Once you know what you are doing it is generally pretty straight forward, same with most things though really lol.

Wait until you see the rest of the collection, haven't even started with my favorite species now yet lol. My favorite cham has to be the big angry male on my hand, he had a lot of character and fathered over 400 babies for me, his blood line is spread across europe now.

Pygmys are great, i love their defense is to vibrate and buzz when you hold them, it is a very poor defense but it feels cool atleast lol, i tend not to handle them much though as they do stress out, it is only when i move them for cleaning really, but they are great little things, and take up hardly any room which is always a bonus.
