There's these tiny bumps on all the eggs. Like little snowflakes all over every egg. Anyone know what could of caused this? They were just laid yesterday.
I have also been having a hard time keeping the temp consistent. This Michigan weather has been crazy. We had a couple days in March that were in the 70s then last week it went up to 80 then snowed 3 days later. Ive been trying the closet method. Think I need to get an incubator. I've heard...
Think cause it's been warming up here, & it's caused the moisture to rise off the vermiculite all around the container & some water was dripping off the lid onto the eggs. So the eggs absorb too much moisture & burst. Also too much moisture in the incubator or containers can cause them to burst too.
I am a part of that group. I was going to ask, but some of the admins are against breeding. I do love those chameleon 101 groups I'm in a few the admins are very nice & helpful Piper has helped me a few times with some chameleons I have gotten from not the best places. I've learned so much from...
It's been over 7hrs & he/she is still alive. I'm keeping it moist. It's yolk sac is smaller. I don't really know what else to do but I'm probably being too hopeful that it will make it. But I at least have to try instead of flushing it or throwing it away. 😬🤞

Bursts egg. I don't understand how all the moisture is leaving the vermiculite & is all on the top & sides of the container. & Vermiculite is dry. I wiped the lid off cause it was dripping on the eggs, added a few drops to the vermiculite. It's warmed up here went from...
I have an egg shrinking now. How longer after shrinking does the baby start pipping through? I only ask cause I have read some sad stories on here that people's eggs Shart shrinking then never being able to pipe through. It's the small 1 near the light. Completely solid. Just holding the light...
Circled the water droplet. I won't open it again. Just did to take a picture of the lid & sides to show there isn't any water or condensation on it. & Yes vermiculite is wet enough where it sticks together.
I separated this 1 cause it had a bump on it. long story short.. my eggs had worms on them. Cleaned them all off got new substrate. Yesterday. Checking today & there's a drop of water on the egg I separated. A nice size drop. There is no extra water on the sides or top of the container. I think...
Okay so I changed out the substrate. Wiped off what worms I could see. Haven't seen anymore on them. Separated 1. Didn't have a hole but Had a bump on it, so I wasn't sure if it was about to get a hole or was a hole that sealed up. Anyways the 1 I separated yesterday now has a water drop on it...
Ok. Thank you so much. I will try that. Hopefully my hatchlings aren't infested. I've done a lot of research on adults. & That parasites are very common in chameleons & can even help with digestion. But an infestation is bad. & With babies that worries me. I'm going to try picking off what I can...
No. I looked really good. No fruit flies. I didn't notice the hair looking worms till today. Wonder if that 1 egg with the hole could of had worms & they got out through that hole? Is that possible? They're only centimeters long. Way skinnier then the fruit fly cultures larvae I have. Wonder if...
I thought it was a fuzzy. When I showed the light on them they were moving around like skinny white worms. Looked like pinworms that I've seen yrs ago from my cat. (That I don't have any more) that's what they looked like but smaller & skinnier. They look longer then any larvae I have ever seen...
