Just wondering if you can visually tell if my veiled has eggs. Here are some photos:

I actually already have a laying bin ready to go. I just didn't want to crowd the enclosure. Will put in asap. Thanks everyone!

great, thank you! I feel so much better!

Will all chameleons stop eating when they have eggs to deliver? Im wondering if this would be a good indicator to know if she has developed eggs. I still don't have a nesting box in her enclosure and figured I could put one in when she stops eating. She still have a great appetite.

Is it normal for a 7 month old veiled to shed after just shedding 3 weeks ago?

Yes, that was on my to do list. How big should I make the bin and what do i put in it?

great ideas, thanks!

Now the temp is at 92, if it gets past 95, should I lower the basking spot?

Thanks Reptigeek! That solved the problem. Temp is at 87 after 10 minutes. Thats good right?

I have a digital also but it was staying at 80 degrees. I will try it again right now.

Wow! 10-15 crickets? She will barely eat 5. The crickets are about 3/4 of an inch long. Is 10-15 for her to munch on all throughout the day? Are horn, super and silk worms a staple or just as a treat? I was told mealworms were just a treat so we do those only on Sundays. I will go out and...

I've made some changes based on other cham owner's input. Please be honest, I'm tough. I just really want to make it perfect for my cham. My kids and husband think I'm obsessed! heres some info. Cage: 24x24x48 reptibreeze UVB: Reptisun 5.0 linear, 18 inches, on a timer from 8 am to...

Im having trouble getting my cham's basking spot to 85-95. It stays at 80 degrees. It is 5 inches down from the 100 watt basking bulb. Is it safer to get a 150 watt bulb rather than move her basking area up to only 3 inches below the bulb? Im not sure what to do to raise the temp. I know...

Thank you!

So the 100 watt bulb at 7 inches down gets the basking area to 85. Id like to get it to 90 degrees. Should I use a 150 watt bulb or move the branch higher?
