What great news, the eggs are so tiny! Looking forward to seeing some babies, how long do they need to incubate before any hatchlings apear?

Well the melleri have been confined to quarters for a while as I need to make sure thye are drinking and eating ok, but thye can come out again when I can set up some feeding stations around the room for them without too many escapee insects!
Good luck at Homebase! _________________ www.rickslivefood.co.uk

Doh! You reminded me....I'm trying to put it to the back of my mind.
Yes, I hope I've made a good choice, and I hope I'm doing so responsibly as well. I consider myself reasonably capable of providing good husbandry for 'exotic pets' (I hate that term). But every species is different, so however much experience you have the conditions provided will always differ. A good indication of welfare (I think) is successful breeding, so if I can get the pair to breed and look generally plump and hydrated I will be happy (and hopefully so will they).
Another wonderful thing about chameleons is the indication that their appearance and colour can give you as to their wellbeing. I look forward to learning all about this whilst I keep them. Thanks for all the support so far, you are all legends! |
