I got a gravid wc lateralis the other day from Mike at FL chams. She laid 11 eggs the other day, but died the next day while I was at work. I swore that I wouldn't buy wild caughts because it just breaks my heart when these guys go. So I decided I would do a necropsy to see if I could tell what caused her death. I don't know Mike's protocal when he bring in imports so I was looking for a parasite load, but didn't see any.
I would appreciate the experienced folk to chime in and let me know if you see anything or can identify parts. None of my chameleon books had a diagram of the insides.
