Effects of incubation temperature on growth and performance of the veiled chameleon (Chamaeleo calyptratus)…
“Incubation at moderate temperatures provided the best conditions for both embryonic and post-hatching development. The highest incubation temperatures were disruptive to development; eggs had high mortality, developmental rate was low, and hatchlings grew slowly. Changes in temperature during incubation increased the among-clutch variance in incubation length relative to that of constant temperature treatments.”Effect of cold temperature on the length of incubation of Chamaeleo chamaeleon….

These results suggest that the cold torpor period of Common chameleon embryos contributes to optimization of development and growth, and synchronizes hatching.”
