Gravid female

[Antihero383]

To make a long story short I rescued a female veiled chameleon from an improper home. This is my first cham. I have done hours of research, I am feeding my crickets repashy bug burger and Dino fuel. I dust the crickets with d3 free calcium at every feeding. I use RO water to mist. Zoomed 5.0 uvb bulb, 75 basking bulb, etc. She is supposed to be around a year old, her colors are dark and bland, I came home tonight and found her laying on the bottom of the cage with much brighter colors. Here is a picture, please help if you can and let me know if more info is needed. Is she gravid? http://imgur.com/JlXcDK8

I can't really tell from that angle if she is gravid, but it looks like she either is shedding or has stuck shed. Is she weak or does she have trouble holding onto branches?

The things you mentioned sound right, but can you fill out the complete help form?

You mentioned she was rescued, do you know the previous conditions she was in and her history? That may help to get an idea of what could be wrong.

I have had her close to a week. Previous husbandry is somewhat unknown, I do know she was without uvb/uva/heat for almost a week. I had since provided her with crickets gutloaded with rapashy bug burger, dino fuel raptor, and dusted with calcium a few times. She started partial sheds after I received her, so I do not believe she is "stuck in shed." She is incredibly strong as far as I can tell, but as this is my first cham I have no point of reference. She did pierce my skin with the strength of her feet/claws earlier if that is any help. I just find it odd that she was sleeping on the bottom of the cage with bright colors when I returned home this evening.
