Of course you know I will! These eggs hit the 10 month mark on tax day (last Thursday). Elisa's cristatus eggs went longer and hatched at about 11 months. We'll see, I haven't been specific about measuring temps the last few months but they have stayed in a 63 to 72 degree range the whole...

Where did you get this animal from? Were you told "she" was spayed or did you have this operation done? Not a common procedure and certainly not performed just to prevent future egg laying problems in an otherwise healthy animal. I would love to see a picture of the back of the feet. The...

One of the eggs started to collapse this morning ... could it be time???:cool: -Brad

Yeah, put some soil over the top of them. -Brad

Are you sure that's a female? -Brad

cover them up. Keep the soil damp. room temperature (63 to 73 degrees f.) 60 to 90 days. They look good to me. -Brad

Got the update on this situation from Kent last night ... you guys suck! ;) -Brad

That's the answer! Particularly insects that are green or can fly. Free range the enrichment feeders so the animal has to hunt for them. -Brad

Maybe not. They are pretty squishy;) The space between the eyes rule doesn't really apply here ... I would try them if it was my chameleon. -Brad

I agree, keep them like veileds and pay attention to their water needs. They are BIG drinkers! Good luck with breeding ... not much success there. I would love to work with these guys again in the future (little jealous) but have my hands full right now!;) -Brad

Just free range the crickets. Phoenix worms are a waste of time ... he will probably never eat one. Waxworms, however ... irresistible! Just place them on branches. Several people will now tell you they are too fatty, but for a baby that hasn't eaten much lately, I would have no problem...

Speaking of that .... the current substrate in the enclosure will not be acceptable for digging out their pits and laying eggs. You need 3 inches or so of organic soil, peat or coco fiber. The substrate must also be kept pretty damp. Good luck with them! -Brad

An length of tube works just as well as another. Reptisun 5.0 has proven to be a superior product, but the reptiglo 5.0 works well too. -Brad

I have used 16x16x30 for adult female veileds, that size is fine. -Brad

It's alright .. I currently keep 10 species of chameleons and have never owned a panther ... just doesn't do it for me.;) -Brad

I would suggest checking out what our site sponsors have available. -Brad

What temperature are you incubating them at? -Brad

I get these in my enclosures all the time. Organic soil and mushroom spores often go hand in hand and all my enclosures are fully planted. I don't worry about it and have had no problems.:) -Brad

Actually this behavior is documented in senegal chameleons. I have no doubt he favors you. I am surprised that you have a CB one, however. They are difficult to breed in captivity and a captive bred specimen would be quite rare. -Brad

Incubating veiled eggs at 70 to 74 degrees has resulted in a 9 to 10 month incubation period with very strong hatchlings. Incubating at a constant 80 degrees has resulted in a 5 to 6 month incubation period with many decent hatchlings and some with eye issues. Incubating at a cooler range of 63...
