Hey guys. Heather here. We are over in our warehouse here at Tye-Dyed Iguana
and I know we haven't had an update on these guys in quite a while, so I thought you guys would get a
kick out of seeing just how big the baby Jackson's Chameleons are getting.
So they are in this tank right here and they are starting to get really big. They're about two and a half months old.
Alright, so we got two of the babies up here hanging out upside down on the top of
the tank. Well, not tank, the cage. It's not... it doesn't have glass walls.
But yeah, it looks like they're feeling a little bit feisty this morning because they've got their...
their extreme coloration going on, and this one you can even see his little horns.
All right, so we got one little baby right here.
You can see they're getting quite a bit bigger than what they were when they were first born.
And then this one, you can see little... little nubs right there in front of his eyes and
on his nose, so... but their mom actually had horns so she was a species of chameleon
where the females have horns as well. Not entirely sure on the exact species, but the females do have
horns too so it could possibly be a girl or a boy. It's gonna be really hard to tell at this stage.
Oh, I see that little guy crawling back there. He's... he's rushing to avoid me.
But yeah, we have three in here... oh look at that tail!
There's that proud baby. Look at you!
Aren't you cute?
He's like "I'm mad at you." This one, you can see those little nubs where the horns are gonna be very well.
Aww, you're a sweetheart.
But I think they're eating small crickets right now. They've graduated from their fruit flies. They grew up on fruit flies.
And then here is the third baby. You can't hardly see him but if you look under, you can see he's blending in with the stick.
He's actually that little blob on the bottom. So we're gonna try to see if we can coax him... coax him out.
Actually, I'm gonna see if he'll come into my hand. Look, look how badly he's trying to blend in! *laughs*
Aww. Little baby! There you go. Gotta be really gentle with them at this stage. Hi!
Yeah, you were turning all sorts of like light yellowish brown.
Cutie! This looks to be the smallest one, so we'll have to be extra careful with him.
Uh-oh. I see your little horns too starting to grow. All gettin horns.
Uh-oh , it won't get off of me.
You don't want to be on my shirt, buddy. Go back inside your tank. There you go. Come on.
Go on the stick. Go on the stick.
There we go. Crisis averted. *laughs*
I didn't want him to fall off me or anything.
But yeah, they're awfully cute. They're not for sale yet. They're very very fragile,
so we're trying to make sure that they are nice and thriving before we find them new homes.
They're doing really good right now, but it's always touch and go with these little tiny babies.
