Few question about my veiled

[chameliojacksoni]

Jut kinda curious I have recently received a new baby veiled I've had her for about 3 moths now I got her when she was very small and she is already as big as my jackson was at a year just curious how long will it take for my girl to be full grown into the big veiled that I see. And will her being a female mean she will be smaller than the males get?
Thanks everyone

She looks like she still has some growing to do. They continue to fill out until 14 to 18 months old but the males are larger than the females. Do you have a laying bin for her? It is recommend to keep a laying bin in the enclosure at all times after they reach 5 months old because it's often hard to tell when they have eggs and they will become egg bound if the don't have a place to lay them. They often lay infertile eggs without a male even being around. I have a few blogs for you below about general care, egg laying and the laying bin.

No I was actually completely unaware if that this is only my second chameleon I had a male jackson before. So when do they start laying eggs?

If you feed them to much and keep them to warm they can start laying as early as 5 months old. The links above will tell you how to cut back on food and heat.
