    How do you put an egg through dispause?

    diapause is the phase when the egg is kind of like hibernating and warmer temperatures provoke the fetus to end diapuse and start developing. for panthers i think the best you can expect is to get the eggs to hatch in about 6 months. there are plenty of posts in this forum and info on the web...

    my jacksons chameleon just gave birth to 8 babies!! what do i feed them?

    k. oxyrhina copulation

    Unfortunately, the eggs molded after about 2 months of incubationand didn't make it. I don't know if this is a general issue with this species or not - I was able to obtain an article in German written by someone who successfully bred this species and they had the same problem with one clutch...
