I am used to my beardies, so when i saw the progress these guy made i was shocked!

 

[rs4guy]

Speaking of beardies, I fed 3 adult female Blue flashes to mine on Friday, bit sad, but they were in rough shape, last few hours of their lives, due to old age. He was happy though!

 

[ShieldMantid1997]

Those are some healthy snacks!

You must not have ever been bitten buy a full grown adult male chameleon.

They draw blood.

I used to have a male that I gave away to a breeder. He got HUGE!!! Never gave me any problems, either. I still have his giant metal screen cage that I'm wondering what to do with. It has holes from sticks I put in there. He was kept outside during the day. He was a happy guy. Always a light green and yellow. Except when I annoyed him, lol.

Scott: Your male is much more colorful than the male I had a few years ago. I do not think that compared to your male, that there is more or beautiful coloration by going to a Panther. There are a lot of boring colored chamys. Yours is not one of those. You should get some nice looking babies next time around for the female. Too bad that huge clutch is infertile.

I have an update on my pair. This morning the male took advantage of his cage being open and was over on the females cage "looking for love". The female did not turn black, but almost seemed to be trying to get his attention and was very green and with lots of turquoise. I thought I'd open up the girls cage and see what happened. He climbed right up on her, got a good grip, and the mating commenced. They were together for about 45 minutes. When they finished, I removed the male, as I was not going to be home to "supervise". I will see how they react to one another when I get home and if they seem "interested", I will let them go at it again.

Maybe in about 9 months I will have babies. I don't know if they are related or not, so I may be inbreeding.

When I purchased them originally I had told the lady that I wanted a male and female to breed in the future when they came of age. She had 2 cages and had me choose one from each. I don't know if they were different clutches, males/females, or what else the different cages might mean. I just don't think that a known breeder would sell a related pair to someone stating that they were going to be mating them in the future. I guess I'll be finding out next year sometime. :sweatdrop:

The girl loves a good flash (Blue flash, that is). She just wishes they didn't hang on so well.
