    Hello: I've had a female veiled for about 9 months now. She has shed fine 3 times and she successfully laid two clutches of eggs so far (what an ordeal that is!). I'll be happy to offer advice on egg laying in veileds to anyone! She is in a screened enclosure, has UV, heat lamp, gets...

    Considering a Veiled Cham
