[ThePHX]

I hardlyyyy take these little ones out and its hard to get a good shot of them because they dont need much light...buttt ill post the only ones i have as of now..

freakin camera WOULD NOT focus on the cham...

They spend a decent amount of time on the floor, heres a darrkk shot of the male

Very cool animals. You're giving me a craving for chameleons.

 

[ThePHX]

i love em I hope i see mating soon

 

[Harveysherps]

Those litttle guys are cool too. I used to feed mine Rolly Pollies and wood lice. Best free food I ever found. They love them too.

 

[ThePHX]

ill have to try thatt, i have a lot of wood lice i think....im gonna look them up

 

[shiftylarry]

What about springtails?

 

[Harveysherps]

They are the little bugs well actually they aren't buggs. But any way they get under wood and bricks and stuff in your yard. Just make sure no insecticides have been sprayed near them. They will live in the cage. They will multiply and eat the Chameleon Doody to survive. So they help out in several ways. I think the Chameleon Journal is where I found that info. I'll have to see i. If I still have any links in my favorites. I used to have several really good sites saved. If I can find them. I'll send them to you.

that sounds greattt, im trying to make everything "natural" so that would be cool to have insects that eat the poop...and not the reptiles

 

[Harveysherps]

Glad to be of help. I have spent hours online reading about all kinds of chameleons. I have had Veilds, Jacksons, Melleri, Poroto 3 Horned, Osteletes,Bearded Pygmy, and Mt Meru Jacksons. All of which were very cool and I miss them all. I really enjoy chameleons. They are very rewarding reptiles to keep. But I got Tegus on the brain now. LOL Just waitin on the funds. LOL

ohh yeah, i have this 250 page book about stump-tails, and im pretty sure im gonna buy petr necas other chameleon book..only problem is..its around 75 bucks

 

[Harveysherps]

The more you can learn about them . The better prepared you'll be to breed and raise them. Books are one thing. I feel money isn't wasted on. Never can have too many books or read to many books.

 

[ThePHX]

yeahh, my book collection is definately growing faster than i can read..cant wait for my live foods book to arrive..then itll be free feeders for brian

 

[Harveysherps]

I can help with breeding feeders if you need any help. I love every aspect of reptile keeping.

 

[ThePHX]

Yeah, i know what you mean theres soo much to learn..cause there are soo many different aspects of reptile keeping. The only problem ive had is with phoenix worm larvae..i posted a link to my blog where ive been doing my "project" in the feeder section, its itside someones thread about phoenix worms..i want them soo badly...i can taste it

 

[Harveysherps]

I've never used Phoenix worms.I'll have to check into that one.

 

[ThePHX]

please do, on the link i have another link to a website that talks a lot about them and how you can basically get them for nothing...just a bucket and food scraps

 

[ThePHX]

not sure what was going on here, its definately the male(close) but about a minute before i took that shot, it looked like the male was on top of the female...butshe was laying on her side not sure if that was mating...orr her waking up from akinesia. BUT can not remember if r.brevis use akinesia...Just dont want to get my hopes up
