XxKRYMZxX @aol.com - Im always willing to chat about Chameleons

I always though Chondros were the Chameleons of the Python world. Though differnt care, they require teh same ammount of attention. They are the same with handeling, they tolerate it but it's better to leave them as "display animals".

You can read more about them here.

www.finegtps.com - I suggest reading that page to page.

Buy his book as well, if you are seriously intrested in chondros.

As long as you get your setup accurate and consistent chondros are pretty easy to maintain. Other than misting, I spend a lot more time maintaining my jungles and scrubs. Handling wise, I handle pretty much all my chondros, even the very young ones, but I'm very careful with the small ones.
