Hi Marcus
Just to let you know, all yems are fit and well. Eating like little piglets. Growing nicely. They are getting very choosey with their food ie they prefer locust rather than crixs. To say yems do not drink from static water they drink from their bowl rather than the dripper! There is one that i have actually got attached to as it always walks out onto my arm when im spot cleaning and sits there on my shoulder, and to get it back in is a laugh on its own. Best Wishes

Hi Marcus,
I did send you a quick note to say that he (PANTHER CHAMELEON) had arrived safely on Thursday at about 12:40, but it sounds like you didn't get it. Perhaps it got spam filtered or my Email provider is being useless again! Yes, he has settled in fine and seems very happy and alert. He seems a bit nervous of people, but I guess that is to be expected this early on. I have seen him feed so I happy he is ok. I have a plastic feeding cup set up and will try and keep humidty as high as I can. If I have any problems I wont hesitate to contact you. Many thanks for your help,

Hello Marcus.
Just a quick note to say that our little chameleon, Jerry, (YEMEN CHAMELEON) has settled in fine to his new home. He has shed twice and has been eating loads his current favourite is hoppers. He really enjoys being out and being handled. He loves climbing up onto our heads and looking out our back window at the trees. Here are a few pictures. Thank-you again.

Hi Marcus,
just wanted to keep you updated on how our little 'George' has settled into his new environment. He's grown so much in the past 2 weeks it's unbelievable! He's a lovely healthy yemen chameleon and is becoming friendlier by the day. Thank you so much for all of your help and hope to be in touch soon about a panther chameleon!
Thanks again

Hi Marcus,
Wow, What an amazing fellow! (YEMEN CHAMELEON) He's settled in surprisingly quick and started to gollop small locusts down him like he'd not eaten for a week!! He had six in no time at all. He is also much bigger than we was expecting; all we had for reference was the photo's on your care sheets of a five week old hatchling.

Dave seems a lot larger than that picture so can we ask how old he is please? You've probably noticed that my lad went for a truly original name; lol. Just one thing that is worrying us slightly, but is probably normal as we've never kept retiles before; as soon as we let Dave climb out of his shipment container into his new home he shot up the plant to the top (didn't think they moved that fast!) and within about half an hour his skin was flaking from around his head, later still his back started shedding, is this just a normal occurrence as they grow? (it probably won't have concerned us as much if it had happened after a day or two but for it to happen more or less straight away was a little alarming!)

Thank you very much for an amazing little creature, Karl, Helen and my son James who is over the moon and says it's his best present ever!

Hi Marcus,
Thought I would email you I came and picked a little tortoise up off you back in November just wanted to let you know that she is doing fine growing eating and every thing really well

Thank you again
Linzi



Yes it was me who had 2 of your babies last year, I wasn't sure if it was you or not i only knew you as Marcus, they are doing really well I am very pleased with them and they are so tame,

Anyway thank you for the care sheet I tend to collect as much info as possible so that I can give them the best and usually someone who has them or has some experience are the best people to keep in touch with

thank you again

Hi Marcus,
Just reading your article about Slovenian Hermann's; alas too late. I bought one of these tortoises early last year. The guy I bought it from told me he bred tortoises...and indeed he probably did, just not the one he sold me!

It has had massive health problems which didn't show up immediately. The poor little thing has had two courses of Baytril as the vet thought that should clear the problem but after a series of very detailed tests many further serious problems showed

The tortoise then had a course of amikin. That still didn't do the trick so the poor little thing then had a one month course of Doxycycline oral every 24 hours and Fortum injection every 48 hours. The vet has tested twice for reptile herpes and mycoplasma but thankfully they have both come back negative....

My vet assures me that my tortoises health problems are not in any way connected with poor husbandry. I was just unlucky that there are unscrupulous dealers selling sickly animals around at the moment :-(

Many thanks,
Chris



What can I say, he (PANTHER CHAMELEON) arrived just after 9.30 he was quite cold, very dark and stressed.

Got him out of his box (which he couldn't wait to get out of) he climbed straight onto my hand without puffing or hissing I put him straight into viv give him a good misting then placed 8 small dusted crickets into a tub, within 10 minutes he ate the lot absolutely amazing animal.

This is going to be a great time learning and watching this amazing creature develop.

Thank you Marcus on giving me this opportunity to house one of the many wonderful species we have on this planet, you should be proud of yourself for giving your time and energy into such an amazing line of work, we don't need to keep WC animals if we can keep genuine CB species to learn and understand about, my thanks again

Cheers

hi marcus,
Firsly thank you for the phone call yesterday it was greatly appreciated and goes to show you have the best interest of your animals at heart. Secondly the chameleon is a wee cracker i am absolutely delighted with him. He is already settled in well and is eating and drinking like there is no tommorow.

He also looks extremely fit and healthy and is as active as i imagine any chameleon could be. I am positive he will grow to become a fine specimen and will continue to give me as much pleasure as he is at the moment. I will gladly recommend yourself to anyone who is interested in becoming a chameleon owner as the service you supply both with livestock and advice is exceptional. If ever i need any advice on this subject i will have no hesitation in contacting you for your expertise and guidance.

Thanks for everthing marcus it has been a pleasure dealing with you.

Take care and all the best.
