In Memory


Molly Jones, one of the blue-veiled chameleons (Chamaeleo calyptratus) I had given to Emily, died last week. :( I'm amazed how sad I am over a reptile! She lived with Derrick for her first several years, then me for a couple of years and Emily since early this year. Not exactly sure of her age, I'm guessing around 6 or 7 years (longer than the expected life span of 5 years). She was survived by her partner, Desmond Jones, and current owner, Emily Koppel.

My sympathy to you.... I think your little palm tree isn't doing well either.....

Poor Molly!! It was very sad but Desmond seems to be doing very well. I made him a very nice chameleon highway series by adding in branches from Molly's cage and he's been extremely active since he has so many options of places to go. I even tried to find a way to connect the cages so he'd have double the space but it wouldn't work out.
