If I check in and see she's covered the hole and is out, should I dig for the egg to confirm it's there? Sorry for being such a noob, this is the first egg of my first chameleon. If there is no egg, should I giver her a chance to lay again tomorrow or take immediately to the vet?

I guess my question is, should I go to sleep tonight or just check in every hour until she's filled the hole in? I don't mind staying up, but I was wondering if there's a time to be worried. Like, after 6 hours of laying, definitely take to vet, etc. I have a great 24 hour emergency vet only 20...

Hello, I have a 6 month old veiled chameleon that has not been mated, but is currently laying eggs. I placed an egg bin that she finally found interesting after about a month and today spent all day digging a hole. Then about 3 hours ago, she came out, ate a few phoenix worms, drank and...

That link opens to a dead page! My female veiled 5-6 months just started turning amazing colors but also is refusing to lay her eggs. I have tried 3 different lay bins and she won't lay. I tried all organic dirt, then just sand, then dirt and sand mixed and she won't lay her eggs. I'm really...

I feed her crickets that are fed Fluker's complete cricket diet. It's the orange cube thing. For treats I give her wax worms or mealworms probably 5 times a week. She eats about 20-30 crickets a week. I dust the crickets when I first put them in her cage with sluker's calcium with vitamin d3...

I'm just worried that my chameleon started showing odd bumps on the dorsal side of the base of her tail.

She's also developed these odd bumps at the base of her tail on the dorsal side, I'm not sure if they're related to being gravid.

I put a 12 inch tall by 12 inch wide by 8 inch long container with organic soil. I see Hue walk around and she defecates and produces uretes there, but hasn't laid an egg yet. Lately I've left her cage open, so she'll walk around my office. Climb the curtains, stay up there for an hour and then...

Any updates?

How did this resolve?

I'm just so excited now that I know they aren't the result of some pathology. I bought Hue without knowing anything about his parents. To randomly get orange and turquoise in a female veiled chameleon makes me feel like I was pretty lucky!

Thanks, the orange spots seem to become more prominent every few hours. I knew they got their colors during puberty, but I didn't expect it to happen so fast!

I just posted two if it helps

Hello, I thought my chameleon (3-4 months) was with egg and gave it a dirt/sand pit so she'd lay her egg. I don't think she's buried her egg, but instead her limbs grew and kind of caught up to her large body. After this, she went from being solidly green to having bright orange splotches on...

We do have a bin set up now. I don't see her having much interest in it. Is it instinctual for them to know to find the bin and lay eggs? As in, will she go down and check the area out first for a few days and then lay eggs or will it be like a switch: no interest to immediately laying eggs.

The pet store sold her to us at a discount because they had her for over a month. She shed every two weeks for two months straight and almost tripled in size. We have a feeling her dietary/lighting needs weren't being met at the store. We've had her for about 3 months now and they had her for...

She is flattening her sides and looking tall. She's only 3-4 months and has been changing in temperament lately.

I went to home depot and bought some organic, pesticide and fertilizer free dirt and put it in a 15 gallon tank at the bottom of the cage, it is about 8" tall of just dirt. The chameleon hasn't come down yet, do you recommend manually moving the chameleon down or just wait for Hue to figure it out?

If she does have eggs, do I have to do anything special or just wait for her to lay them?
