Females laying eggs

[Lil P]

Is there a max age at which a female panther can lay eggs? For instance would a 3 year old female be too old to mate and lay fertile babies?

Very new to chameleon-ry, sorry if this is a silly question haha.

Thanks as always - Lake

I would not mate a panther female at 3 years old. That's the time she should retire.

I wasn't about to breed a 3 year old. But I do have a 3 month female I may breed in the future. Thats why I asked, to see how long I can wait to do so.

I recommend breeding no earlier than 1 year old and of a good weight.

It depends on the health of your chameleon but I normally would only mate her between the age of one and three. Panther females can produce several clutches withnonlynone mating.
