Thanks Heather... see any girls let me know  Your male is beautiful...mine looks shabby at the moment because he is shedding....but I especially love the blue scales around the casque...they are glowing turqouise! If you see a female fischers let me know too...would really like to pair my males up
On Karen's point...I have my male in a 3x2x2 (3ft long) all glass viv, with ventilation mesh strip at the bottom front, and across the middle of the top. The humidity is VERY high and I spray minimum of twice a day (as with all my chams)...usually more....
The backing and sides are also covered with coco-fibre...and it is heavily planted with fuschia, bromeliads, ficus pumilia, jewel orchids, and loads of other plants I can't remember

I have found so far that he will drink from my little hand dripper. Also if you spray him gently and continually he will drink the drops falling on him. I am going to set up a dripper too...but at the moment he is being constantly monitored for hydration...The viv really does stay WET though, so I don't think that will be a problem...
I equate these to pygmies...they behave quite similarly...slow deliberate movements  Lovely jubbly
