Incubation tips for Pygmy Chameleon eggs.

[ChameleonRave]

Well - I recently got a gravid R. viridis chameleon on Wednesday, the breeder sent her as a WC gravid female. I am wondering how I should go about the incubation. I was told room temp would suffice, but I was wondering if there is special treatment towards this species and its eggs. I have been searching high and low for information, but it seems like the species isn't very commonly kept.

I'd greatly appreciate any advice on incubation. Here are a few photos of her. She's plump and is pacing like crazy.

I see you have other pygmies on the bed, you don't keep them together do you? Also, try to leave her alone as much as possible because she is stressed enough being gravid and having a massive life form staring at her won't help. As for incubation I know brevs are normally in the 70s but not sure about virdis, hopefully someone with experience on them wil come along.
(Edit: are those other pygmies brevs on the bed.)

No - they aren't living together. I separated them after the first day. I was sent a wrong order of 1.3 brevs and .1 viridis which was gravid. I am in the process with a friend disputing it since I was supposed to receive 1.1 brev and 1.1 viridis, and the seller told us that he knowingly sent us 1.3 brev and .1 viridis.. Either way. I'm checking on her whenever she is being fed in the morning and during her misting. I went to mist her about a half hour ago and it looks like she has already started to dig a hole.

I have no experience with viridis, but I did have brevs for a couple years. I baked and scattered a nice layer of leaf litter in the terrarium which the little females seemed to appreciate, as well as some thickly planted areas. They're all adorable. Good luck with them.

I have to go into town and find some nice terrarium plants for them. Leaves haven't started to drop here yet, but when they do, I'm getting some more branches and leaves to bake.
