Pretty impressive collection, do you have time left to eat/sleep/work?


lol, work def because I need to earn to feed the whole lot. Not too sure about the other 2 though.

David Maguire, my oustalets are sub adults, I think they will still grow a bit more. The female started to lay eggs the other day although I don't think they are fertile.

The male is about 6.5" from the tip of the nose to the end of the tail and the female is about 6" excluding the tail atm. I am using mesh terrarium to keep them, it's the 260G exo terra one. But I noticed they don't bother about going to the bottom of the viv, so I might move them to one size smaller after I sort out the reptile room. For the deco, I only just put the basic in like cheese plant, rubber plants, some fake leaves and a few tree branches, with UVB light and basking light resting on the top.

How on EARTH do you look after them all? I only have 2 and I am in there 10 times a day checking on them and spraying etc.

I do want a panther or two later in the year, but jeez man!!!

Stunning though!!

I trust you are aware of the broken limbs and probably MBD in the animal above?

The "Fischer's" aren't Bradypodion, they are Kinyongia. The male you have pictured is actually Kinyongia multituberculata, the West Usambara Two-horned Chameleon.

Yes I am aware she has MBD. The previous owner whoever that was decided she did not want her anymore. As I have recused a lot of chams, she decided to dump her on my doorstep. The first link you could not see pics of Megan anymore as I moved her pics into different folder. Nothing I could really do now as her bones was set to a certain way. She has a few calcium injection from the vet, and otherwise she is now fully grown beautiful adults.
