Found this Eastern Snapping Turtle beside the road on my way back from the auto shop today. I HAD to take pictures, of course. He had maybe a 15 inch shell length. Missing an eye and had a nice scar on his head too. Enjoy.
That would be a good size for hatchlings until they get to be about twelve inches long or so. By then they will require at least an 18x36 cage footprint. It usually takes about 6-8 months like sam said. They do grow fast.

I think you'll have to be a little more specific, since many, many species of chameleon originate from madagascar, and I'm not aware of a species with this common name. Do you have the scientific name, or another common name?
Yup, read it. love it. love Gregg, too. x-P Thanks for sharing, it helps hearing someone else's experience with it. I'm interested in keeping a desert viv with a bosc monitor and a rain forest viv with a boa constrictor. Maybe one desert viv for a leopard gecko too. Obviously there are lots of...
I loved Gregg Madden's article on bio-active substrate on the Gecko Time blog.
