Responding to email notices you receive.
**************************************************
In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!! About the Google Adsense ads being displayed

Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.
Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."
Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

Addendum: 01/10/2026
=====================
Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

www.adcham.com is probably about the best you are going to see right now. The CCIC has some great info but it is down right now for updates.
johnstons aren't all that difficult to keep if you can get them to acclimate. Most that you see for sale are imports and don't adapt well to captivity. Heavy parasite loads and high water requirements make for a bad combination. Overall they are similar to jacksonii. Feel free to ask specific questions if you have them.

Thank you!
I keep hearing that CB is not common, There is a dealer here that is selling a proven pair. He told me they wer NOT wild caught. He said they had already had one clutch for him. Do you think it is unlikely they are CB?

That is hard to say without knowing who the dealer is. It is possible that they are CB as there have been a few people who have had some success with them.

Hello,
If you still need info, don't hesitate to ask me! I've successfully bred and hatched many clutches.... Never reached F2 but I think I could have had I not sold them all off before I went to East Africa. Jason, I would say them are more like deremesis versus jacksonii although they can and like it brisk cold, they would bask here when temps were in the mid to high 90's! Keep in mind, our overall humidity was near or at 100% too and showers were frequent! I was able to keep mine, breeders, neonates, juvies etc) outside from early/mid spring to mid/late fall with 10 months outdoors being the norm for where we are in North Alabama. I mean that they are more like deremensis in climatic preference, they are definitely not sedintary like the deremensis are! Those have the be the laziest of all chameleons; parson's included!!!
Incubation is tough, you almost need a wine cellar or basement to do it right if you do not have some type of cooling device prebuilt and tested because I would let my eggs drop from mid to low 50's during some nights and found this to be the best obviously due to the fact that at these temps produced the only neonates that weren't carrying a yolk sac. When they were still carrying one, they were weak from the get go and were a struggle to keep alive while some still eventually died...
If you have any specific questions, don't hesitate to email me!
