    What to do after eggs are laid?

    He fed her daily, only crickets and no dusting. And I know her temps were WAY to hot! She had a ceramic heat lamp on 24/7, a red light at night, a coil heat lamp during the day and a coil UVB bulb when we got her. The top of her cage was melted from the heat as well as the plastic lamp housing...

    What to do after eggs are laid?

    Thanks! After all we had read we thought it was odd that she hadnt laid before with previous owner but he was an idiot... not even sure he knew they laid eggs, we have readied her cage for it since a week after we had her and then nothing. We will do the shower thing. She hates it, but she...

    What to do after eggs are laid?

    Just wanted to post an update! Karma is a lot better this morning! She spent most of yesterday on her basking branch, resting, napping and looking tired. She didnt eat for me, but I did see her drink water from the dripper and I misted her several times. Her color was still dark. She was...

    What to do after eggs are laid?

    I had no clue they laid that many at a time! I stare at the container with all the eggs in it and then at Karma and wonder HOW all those came out of her and how we didnt see her bulging and bumpy. I checked her last week and didnt see or feel anything crazy. Any idea on how soon again she...

    What to do after eggs are laid?

    Ummmm, should I be freaking out? I just dug up the eggs with the help of my boys and we have 60 eggs:eek: They look fine and she seems tired but ok. How do we get this to slow down and be less in numbers when she does lay because I am pretty sure that 60 eggs at a time will definitely...

    What to do after eggs are laid?

    Ok, Karma spent last Wed/Thurs climbing and pacing all over her cage. I checked and chances are it meant she was looking to lay eggs. She isnt bred and age is unknown though we were told about 18 months when we got her 6 months ago but she seems younger than that. If real, she would be about...

    Your Next Chameleon?

    While we LOVE Karma, our veiled.... she is our 1st exploration into being a cham owner and she is a delight but for colors, she is not. She is a VERY boring colord veiled, esp. compared to most of the females I have seen on the board. She has green and black and a tiny bit of yellow. Mainly she...
