    Why am i so bad when they lay

    My exotic animal vet warned me that chameleons are difficult and you may do everything right and they still may die. While upsetting, it seems worth the risk to enjoy your girl as long as you can. So sorry for your loss.

    Reproduction...clutch size...

    As I am experimenting with controlling clutch number and clutch size by diet and basking temp, it sounds like the female still goes thru receptivity in a cyclic manner but follicles undergo atresia with restricted food. Or does this also reduce receptivity cycling too? Leptin theoretically...

    Etosha weight question

    I was assuming she would go thru receptive colors etc before more eggs. I will cut her food more but she really seems quite thin

    Etosha weight question

    My female veiled Etosha is now almost 10 months old. She has had one successful clutch of 45 eggs back in October. Way too many I know. She weighed 125g right before she laid and emerged from that at 78g. I fed her well for several days and then have put her on an every other day schedule...

    No we did give her art lessons when she was young as we recognized her artistry-none of which comes from me or my husband

    Black spot on Etosha

    I was thinking it was a bruise as i had put a rock in bottom of the laybin and she laid right over the rock so I know she bumped it. Thank you.

    Black spot on Etosha

    Since Etosha dug and laid her eggs on 11/13 she has this unchanging blacked dotted spot near her mouth. Advice needed. Is it a vet issue?

    Etosha behavior

    She is at 82 degrees Is that good? Also she scarfed her 7 crickets today. Definitely hungry. I wonder if every other day with 5 crickets would be better. She also will get a silkworm or hornworm as a treat

    Etosha behavior

    I have started a feeding diet now of 8 med crickets gutloaded and lightly dusted every 3 days she is not happy but is that about right? She had 45 eggs which i never want to repeat

    Female laying eggs question

    That is my question too. Etosha had 45 which I was appalled at. I would love none to 10 or 12 at the most.

    Etosha behavior

    Since Etosha is her old self today I weighed her and she is only 77g. She was 112 at her highest with eggs. So being she is 8.5 months old is this too small or is she thinner than normal due to egg laying. She ate 10 crickets and 4 BSFL and a hornworm already tjis morning. Should I feed her...
