Thought I'd share some pics of my collection. I limited it to a photo of each species for those of you still on dialup.

This is my juvenile female Calumma p. parsonii. She's a fat little thing with beautiful blue coloration:

This is a female Kinyongia tenue (previously Bradypodion tenue - article to explain change in next E-Zine issue to be released in a week or two). These are a truly amazing and beautiful species:

This is a male Kinyongia fischeri sub.spec.nov. There is a paper in press reviewing the fischeri complex and I expect this subspecies will be formally described in it.

This is a female Kinyongia f. fischeri finishing up a shed. The largest of the Fischer's subspecies, they have incredibly long tails:

This is a juvenile male Kinyongia fischeri multituberculatum. I love the dorsal crest at this age:

This is an adult male Kinyongia uthmoelleri. Great coloration in these guys!:

This is a male Chamaeleo (Trioceros) tempeli. This species is ovoviviparous and has a double gular crest:

This is a male Chamaeleo (Trioceros) hoehnelii. This has always been a favorite species of mine:

This is a nice subadult CB Chamaeleo (Trioceros) melleri. She's changed coloration quite a bit as she's grown and is an impressive animal now:

This is a male Furcifer cephalolepis. I currently have him for sale but am thinking I might hold onto him. Cool little chameleon:

This is a male Rhampholeon spinosum (I actually sold this particular specimen but its the best pic I'd ever gotten of this species and its a good representation of those I still have). Talk about a difficult species to photograph and incredible color and morphology:

This is a female Rhampholeon (Rhampholeon) spectrum:

This is a young male Rhampholeon (Rhampholeon) temporalis. Cute little CB with some nice green coloration:

This is a CB female Rieppeleon brevicaudatus:

This is a nice male Brookesia thieli. This species is a lot less active then a lot of other members of this genus but I still enjoy them. This male was playing dead after I picked him up:

This is a juvenile female Brookesia superciliaris. These guys are really interesting!:

Hope you all enjoyed the pics!

Chris

That is one incredibly interesting collection of Chameleons Chris. I particularly like the camouflage of the Rhampholeon spinosum . Cool

Always nice to see your chams, Chris. Glad the Parsons are doing well for you! Laughing

wow, stunning. those two Brooksia[/i are definitely my fav of the dwarf chams

Great pics Chris, what camera are you using? I particularly like all of the chams. Laughing

The parsons is a stunner, the Mellor one of my favourites, the Tempeli very unusual and stunning in its own right, the spinosum for some odd reason makes me think of Theloderma Corticales, I think its the camouflage and irregular outlines.

How are you keeping your parsons, have you managed to breed any parsons Chris?

Also how are you keeping the hoehnelii please. Thanks.

Stunning pics and gorgeous chams as always Chris Smile

I am also interested in how you keep your Hoehnelii's - do you breed them at all?
