    URGENT!! Sunken Eyes!!

    Thank you for the condolences. We did have her into the vet back in August and we were told she just wasn't ready to lay yet, so we added a laying bin to her cage and she never showed any signs of being ready to lay. The vet who seen her in August mentioned it was the first chameleon x-ray he...

    We are sad to announce that Petrie passed away roughly 40 minutes ago. She will be dearly missed, may she rest in paradise.:(

    URGENT!! Sunken Eyes!!

    Dying.... We just checked on her in the steam and she's dying.. She's turning black and isn't moving at all. We picked her up and she opened her mouth really big but her eyes are closed and she won't move her arms or anything.

    URGENT!! Sunken Eyes!!

    She only has the one laying bin which takes up half of her cage, and we just checked it and there were no eggs. She has never gone to the bottom of her cage, and never showed any of the normal signs of ready to lay. I have an appointment in the morning with a vet although he isn't as experienced...

    URGENT!! Sunken Eyes!!

    She has a laying bin in her cage at all times since August. It's deep enough for her to dig down and deposit but there are no changes to the bin to think she dug anything.

    URGENT!! Sunken Eyes!!

    Hello, We are unsure if she has laid her eggs yet, we never noticed any scratch marks in her laying bin, or any dirt on her face or body. The only reason we thought there were eggs was because the vet had done an x-ray in August and said he thought it was eggs and she did have the marble look...

    URGENT!! Sunken Eyes!!

    Petrie hasn't laid any eggs yet that we've noticed, but she does look smaller and I no longer see the marble effect in her stomach. We went away for the weekend and I came home and noticed she has sunken eyes. Could this be egg bound or dehydrated? I currently have her in the bathroom with steam...

    Chameleon still hasn't laid eggs

    Just an update on Petrie: She stopped eating crickets a couple days ago and yesterday she stayed on one branch the entire day and didn't move, we've been providing her water and she is not drinking anything and she is dehydrated. She started walking around today and I put her sheet back over...

    Chameleon still hasn't laid eggs

    Hi jannb, No she has not been mated since we've had her but we don't know if she had any contact with any other chameleons before we had purchased her. As posted previously the vet did take x-rays which showed she had eggs so I'm not sure if thats the case or not. She does have a laying bin in...

    Chameleon still hasn't laid eggs

    Okay I will fill up the remaining of the bin this evening when she is asleep so I don't bother her during the day. I will also add the sheet at this time to give her privacy. I kinda have a feeling she isn't ready to lay yet since she hasn't begun digging but I just want to make sure we are...

    Chameleon still hasn't laid eggs

    Hi there, I can add more sand to the laying bin to make it 13 inches but then it will be filled to the top of the bin, is that okay or should I leave one-two inches from the top of the bin? We also have a garbage bin we had tried to use for laying that has top soil in it, but when we placed...

    Chameleon still hasn't laid eggs

    More photos as promised. Also more information in case you haven't read the first post: Petrie hasn't begun scratching at the cage or hasn't gone to the bottom of the cage, although there appeared to be a couple scratch marks in the sand two days ago but thats all we noticed. We had x-rays done...

    Chameleon still hasn't laid eggs

    Here are some photo's, I can only upload 5 at a time, will add the other three in next post. What are you using for substrate in your lay bin? - Top soil and play box sand mixture How deep is it? 9" deep How wet is it? Wet enough to hold a tunnel without it collapsing in on itself How...

    Hi junglefries! Thanks for the advice! Petrie still hasn't laid eggs yet, she is still eatin and drinking, looks healthy, continues to have small droppings and still pacing around her cage. She enters her laying bin several times a day and leaves again, not sure why she does that. Her vines...
