Hi Karen,
I was wondering if you have any experience with Meller's chameleons? I have had a trio of 2 females and 1 male over the past year and was hoping to breed them. I have had them in a large free-roaming setup and have managed to hopefully have a successful mating. One of my females laid 81 healthy looking eggs yesterday and I was wondering if you knew the best incubation techniques etc. I have read all the available info that I could find but there is generally little published info about. Any first hand experience would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Karen, can you e_mail me to my account r_watts@hotmail.co.uk if you think of anything about what we spoke about earlier (hope that makes sense)

hi karen

thanks for your advice on all things cham, and quality avatar..

just wondering if you have any pics of your vivs. would be good to see howthe perfect setup looks. i've changed my viv deco around that many times, poor chams must think i'm a real fruit loop... lol

Hi Karen,

Reading some of the posts here I understand that you sometimes have surplus panther chameleons and that they are stunning animals.
I have a male nosey-be who's about 4-5 years old who has just lost his mate through being egg bound and am desperatly trying to replace with either a adult female or go the other way and find a young pair un-related.

Would be grateful for any help.

thanks for your advise, i have found a very reasonable full set with the small exo's you use for juveniles. One question i have about this is, the light canopy it comes with has an attatchment for a compact uv bulb. The info i have read on compact bulbs is very contradicting between sources. Have you ever used these, and what strength should i go for?

Hi karen, i am new to chameleons but have one ordered for september. I have spent alot of effort sorting the viv out, its pretty much as you said to in the panther care sheet. My concern is, i will be getting him at 3 months old and have an adult sized viv. Have you raised small chams in larger enclosures? and what problems am i likely to face? thanks. josh

Thanks Lou, it was just a shorter version of my care sheet, The chams arnt mine they had the photos, one looks almost dead doesnt it!

Just read your article on chams in Practical Reptilekeeping, which I picked up in my local ASDA, of all places. Congrats on a great article! Are the chams in the photos all yours?
