Is it possible for a over 1 year old veiled chameleon with 85-90 basking temps and well fed to not have laid any eggs yet? I've seen her go up and down the cage in the past but now she doesn't do it anymore.
I have a trashcan with sand in it for her to lay eggs in but she's never laid any. She looks a little fat to me. I do give her a lot to eat daily. She eats great and everything too.
Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - I've had this chameleon for about 6 months now. Female. Veiled chameleon
Handling - Every couple days about 5 minutes or less.
Feeding - Crickets, dubia roaches, superworms, stick bugs. I feed her about 15 crickets (1/2 size) a day plus some superworms as well throughout the day or about 10-15 baby dubia roaches and a stick bug in the beginning of the day. I gut load the bugs with veggies daily. I used to feed my chameleon a lot of carrots and other veggies but she doesn't seem to want to eat them anymore. (I fed her carrots daily, I guess she got sick of them!)
Supplements - rep cal Vitamin without D (daily) with D (twice month) and multivitamins (twice a month)
Watering - I spray 3-5times a day, haven't seen her drink and sometimes have the small dripper going.
Fecal Description - White with dark brown poops. No parasite testing
Cage Info:
Cage Type - 24x24x48 screen cage
Lighting - 9:58am-9:58pm, regular house light bulb and the 5.0 reptile uva bulb
Temperature - Basking area 85-90, non basking 68-75 (during the day)
Humidity - Spray the cage 3-5 times a day humidity gets from 35-45 when sprayed and drops down to 25 before spraying again.
Plants - 2 potho plants (one hangs just outside the cage almost like a free range without a door), an umbrella plant and another small plant I forgot what it was called.
Placement - In the living room where we frequently pass by.
Location - Maryland, East coast.
Current Problem - The current problem you are concerned about.
