i stopped by amazing blue's booth and he asked me if had ben talking to you. lol i was sort of surprised he rememberedme because when i got my sambava from him the whole meeting took only 15 minutes, but he recognized me right off the bat! ...he also said you picked up an ambanja! looks like we will be ordering 2 sambava from kammerflage kreations(male and female). i was only looking for a female but after leaving their booth the first time my wife(she is always surprising me lately) said she wanted a male also. so we went back to get a little more info and pick up the flies and my wife got a book about parasites. after that we went back to amazing blues booth to look a bit more at the ambanja's but getting an ambanja won't happen until next year.

she was completely against getting chameleon in the beginning but it was the lesser of 2 "evils", i intially wanted a mountain king snake! it really wasn't until she brought home the 2 baby flapnecks that she started to come around. until then she wouldn't even touch them . now she takes them out like a "pro". this is actually the first thing we have/can do together in our 10 years together!
as far as the snake thing...well it's not going to happen in this house as long as she is around so i'm working on something at a friend's house that has a grey banded king. right now it loks like if i buy the snakes and(including lights, ect.)their cages he or his wife will care for them. jsut that took some talking! he really wanted a boa but i told that get too long and will eat his dog if it gets out...you propaganda(LOL)!

Yes I am back! Man, I don't think I've ever had a more chameleon-intense weekend. Friday morning, I ditched out of work 5 hours early and came home to find my female Sambava crawling her cage bottom for the first time. So I stuck her in the bucket and she immediately started digging.... I thought dammit cause I was tryin to get out of town and that process takes at least 5 good hours. So I rigged up a dripper on her and figured she was good to go. So I went to Cali at about 110mph and got a room there in San Diego that night. Saturday morning, I show up at the show and right after walking in the door, Amazing Blue pulls out this nice 5 month old male Ambanja and said it was for me (NOT CHEAP). I was like... Uuuh ok.... I wasn't really sure I wanted an Ambanja, but it was a nice one with lotsa blue and some red bars coming through. So I said what the heck. They also had brought me 6 screen cages, so my bill with them was pretty large this time. But they threw in a free shirt and Miner-All I so why not. I wandered around the show a bit, picked up more supplies, $78 worth of feeder insects and stopped by to say hi to Kammers. Man, they had a 14 month old male Ambanja for sale for 50 bucks more than I got mine for... I was kinda kickin myself in the butt over it. So anyways, I got home last night, and this female Sambava was sitting there looking at me, waiting to be put back in her cage. So I weighed her, offered her some nice new hornworms and got her situated. Then I dug up 24 perfect Sambava eggs (small clutch....?). Then I got some cages together and got everything going for my new Ambanja. He was happy and ate a little bit. Then this morning, my female Nosy Be that was going through all the egg binding issues from 1-2 weeks ago was crawling her cage. So I stuck her in the egg laying container and she's been digging test holes all day. AND my female veiled should be laying her second clutch any day now AND tomorrow afternoon (after a stop by the bank), I'm ordering a female Tamatave and a female Ambanja! So with those 2 females, I'll have 1.1 Tamataves, 1.1 Ambanjas, 1.2 Nosy Be's, 2.2 Sambavas, and 1.1 Sunburst Veileds. Not to mention my male cross panther. Whoo..... I'm not sure I can handle any more chams! It's a full time job!

I finally found them at Chameleon Corral. Natural State Chams had some then they were gone but Chameleon Corral had some and when she sent me pics, they were the same ones that Natural State had (same sire pictures). She must have gotten them from Natural State cause she said she didn't breed them. I'm trying to order 2 females today but haven't heard back from her yet. She's got 2 unrelated clutches about 3 1/2 months old each. I got one of my Nosy Be females from Chameleon Corral and was impressed with her (big clutches).
