New Additions

We have ventured into the world of Chameleons! They are very neat little lizards. The female settled right in but it took the male a few days to color up. He is finally starting to show some pretty colors.


This is the little female. She is normally more pink but the camera and the flash freaked her out a little which is why she has the dark stripes.



Another picture of the female. She will eat off the tweezers and hopefully soon out of my hands, but I don't know about holding crickets in my hands, eww.

I wish the picture was totally in focus because I love the way her eyes are pointing, it's like she is pondering something!




This is the little male. He isn't quite grown up yet and will get more color as he grows older. He is also alot more timid than the female, but from what I'm told it's because he's younger.



Another picture of the little male. He was nervous too! He has started to get some blue colors in him when he's not mad...LOL.


The kids love these guys. They are very neat to watch and take care of. The way they eat and move is very cool.
