AG member David Pr\u00f6tzel has successfully incubated and hatched a clutch of Furcifer viridis<\/em>. Congratulations!<\/p>\n Furcifer viridis<\/em> is a small species of chameleon found in western Madagascar. It was long thought that the species belonged to the carpet chameleon Furcifer lateralis<\/em> – but since 2012 it has been clear that it is a separate species. David incubated the eggs for around 50 days at 20-22\u00b0C (room temperature), then a further 50 days at 24-25\u00b0C in an incubator. From day 100 until hatching, the eggs were at 28 to 29\u00b0C. The total incubation period was 142 days. David used fine vermiculite as a substrate, which was moistened once.<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" AG member David Pr\u00f6tzel has successfully incubated and hatched a clutch of Furcifer viridis.
