Boy do I wish I had the answer to this question. For some reason, they have become very hard to find...wild caughts included.

Sorry I'm not more help...

Where did you get yours?

I got my male from First Choice reptiles awhile back. He has eggs incubating, but none available. As I mentioned in my reply to Reptayls, I got my female from ChamCo. They don't have any right now either, unfortunately.

Sure do wish we could find some.

I should have clarified my post. I mean I can't seem to find f. lateralis lateralis. The Kammers breed the Giant Carpets (f. lateralis major)...a different species/sub-species (evidently, some disagree on whether or not this is a different species altogether or simply a different sub-species...but they are different regardless.)

ChamCo does not have any, currently. That is where I got my CB female from.

Take care

Unfortunately this beautiful chameleon is not to be kept. There life span is so short that if you get a WC animal unless it is a juvenile it is ready to die from old age. There are very rarily any captive bred animals because people can't make money breeding lateralis and even a young breeding pair will only produce a few clutches of eggs. Try your hand at a different species.
