My female veiled layed 24 eggs on Friday. She had covered the hole and went back to the top of her tree. I left the lay bin in until Sunday and she never went back. She's been eating and drinking and seemed she was in a better mood. Today I took X-rays of her and it seems there are more eggs...

My husband is currently building me a solid oak enclosure with hidden lights and a cabinet under to hide the drainage pot and misting system. He is being very particular with it and in the end it will be gorgeous. But it takes along time to do it correct (ie no nails or screws, just wood glue...

I just moved my female into a larger screen cage and I'm having issues with my misting system misting outside the enclosure. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and possible ways to keep it from happening other than using a shower curtain. I want something that looks natural and...

Make sure your lay bin is correct there is a link in breeding on this. Also make sure to have her in a traffic free area or cover her cage. They are private about laying and if you catch them in the process they will stop and may become egg bound. My females previous owner did not do something...

Omaha NE. The Pet Clinic privately owned clinic. I work there and we have three vets that love to see reptiles. We also service Fontenel Forest a nature conservatory examining and treating their reptiles and raptors.

I just dug her eggs out of the lay bin, 24 total. She's eating well and drinking. I'm going to try the restricted diet and environment control, it's worth a shot and can't hurt anything. I just worry about future clutches since the reason why she was turned over to my clinic was because she...

Came home tonight to find my little girl skinny and covered in mud. I've never been so proud. Her past history scared me since her previous owners relinquished her to my clinic because she was egg bound. This was back in February. Since the. She has reabsorbed some of her eggs, then started...

Great update!! Today I came home to a skinny muddy little girl. She laid her eggs. I have been watching her closely and made a few habitat changes and she finally did it. And all on her own. I will be taking her back to work on Monday to X-ray her to make sure they are all out, but as skinny as...

I usually have the light set up but I bought a new cage and finished the stand with drainage and moved her in yesterday. I had to rearrange the misting system and hadn't put the timer back on before she started digging away, lol. I guess she likes the new place.

So I peaked in the window again and I saw Patty hanging on the side and her stomach was sunk in. So like a bad person I went in to her room to see closer. Yep her tummy was sunk in. She looked hungry and is still really dark in color. She refused crickets this morning, but ate 6 tonight. I...

My female veiled is laying her first clutch of infertile eggs. She is currently in her laying box in her new enclosure digging away. The only thing I forgot to do was place her lights back on the timer today. I don't want to spook her from her nest but I'm not sure if I can leave the lights on...

My clinic has three experienced exotic vets that have done this type of surgery before. We are hesitant to do the surgery because even though she is in great health surgery is very risky for chameleons and the recovery is also not without risk. We are looking for other avenues to see if we can...

I have a female veiled Cham that was born the end of July. She has been gravid since February. I have given her a dig box, monitored the temp she has never laid eggs. It was confirmed by X-ray that she is definitely gravid. And still is. At one time she was absorbing the eggs, but now there are...
