Is this a new pet Irish?

this is my daughters pet, she got it last sept for her birthday

So amazing.....look at his little feet.....like a weeny dinosaur!

its so funny watching her Janey, she moves so slowly

Looks like its grown since Ciara first got her ....

your right janette, she really has grown since last yr

It,s very sweet , do they behave like a pet Eileen ? I know that sounds silly but I mean do they recognise your voice and take notice of you , things like that !

She is like a little dinosaur. I love the way their eyes move in different directions.

i know what you mean Amy, she gets fed at same time every day so aye she does behave like a pet. she knows when its dinner time. only ciara and her b/friend can handle her cos she knows them . anyone else an she starts hissing lol

aye Deida , her eyes move all over the place lol you should see how quick her tongue comes out to eat the food tho

Eileen ~
You've photographed her very well :o)

Just look at those little feet clinging on !

Thanks Eileen ,I saw some different kinds of these in a large garden centre and wondered at the time if they would make good pets , so they like routine and they don,t like strangers sounds a bit like me LOL

lol Amy

Beautiful little creature - sounds a lot like my tortoises, they know me and respond to my voice and come running (yes, running!) when I enter the room to feed them.

they actually run Gee?

They can move quite fast, Irish, especially Little 'Un - certainly not the 'old slowcoach' that some people imagine.

I agree with you there Gee , we had a couple when my children were small and if they left the gate open the Tortoise spotted it straight away and were of like the wind we had to run to catch up with them , lol

they used to be quiet common as pets yrs ago, i remember my neighbour having one. now they cost a couple of hundred euro over here to buy one

Does she change colour according to her mood, I do?

lol do you Ams? yeah Karma changes colour according to her mood and the temperature

I Love its skin colur but still think itd look good in some pretty pink pjs Eileen :) lol

Lovely creature :)

thanks tracy

What a cute litle creature - you expect to see a speech bubble saying Bud-wei-ser.....what a lovely colour he is too, he matches my Greefingers!

lol your right , i can almost see the speech bubble now

Irish, you have your own ark...Lol... a terrific pet, Ciara... I have a gecko and I'm often asked if he knows me... they most certainly do...hahaha... Opiegecko comes to the top of his AQ when i'm adding crickets and I swear he looks me in the eye and says thankyou Mummy when I give him bits of mango! Do Chameleons eat fruit or just insects?

karma mostly gets crickets and locusts Lori, their dusted with a calcium powder before she gets them. im not too sure if ciara has given her any fruit

Nice photo, interesting pet!
My granddaughter, who has always been a dinosaur lover, is 7 now and has become interested in komodo dragons. Hopefully she won't want one for a pet. :-[ Her mom and dad "adopted" (sponsored) one for her at one of the zoos for her birthday. She will get a certicate, a picture of the dragon and a stuffed dragon. The donation helps support the animal.

what is it called Irish. I love my animals but I dont really find this one very cuddlie

I'm sure you can cuddle him Donnah, just don't squeeze too hard though. I love him, he's so cute. How old is he and how long is their lifespan? Are they difficult to look after? Are they expensive to purchase and what special equipment is needed for optimum pet happiness?

oh wow Weeds, ive seen the Komodo dragons on tv, amazing looking.

hi Donagh, its a chameleon and shes called Karma.

she is 7 mts old GF . they usually live for 5 yrs.
they are very easy to look after . the outlay at first is expensive as you have to buy a special tank and heat lamps but to feed his is cheap.
mostly a diet of crickets and locusts with banana sometimes as a treat.

A lot easier (and probably cheaper) than feeding my 3 cats! What a fab pet.

can not say that I ever fancyied one as a pet But I am sure he or she is well loved

Definitely the closest looking thing to a dinosaur that I've ever seen ! My son would have a fit over this one, it's adorable !

Irish how great is that for a pet wow!!!!!

~very dinosaur like~imagine a hundred times bigger....!

thanks guys,

Perfect name! But now I keep singing the song.......

lol that song is gona be stuck in your head for the rest of the day
