I adopted this female yesterday from someone who obviously didn't know anything bout chams he had her in a tiny glass cage with nothing to climb on and he didn't even have a uvn light. Anyway she looks like she's either got a lot of eggs in her or she's really overweight. When I asked him he said he had been feeding her 25 crickets a day. Does anybody think she does have eggs cuz if so I need to make her a laying bin. Thank you.

I'll be the first to say...a picture would help. How old is she? And 25 crickets...what size were they? (Seems like a lot unless they are small crickets.) If you suspect she was not well cared for, I would suggest a trip to the vet, at least with a fecal sample. Here's a great starting point for all things chameleon https://www.chameleonforums.com/care/chameleons/. Here's a bit on laying bins https://www.chameleonforums.com/blogs/jannb/345-egg-laying-laying-bin.html. I would check out the section on nutrition soon. I'm not sure if she has been getting proper supplements, but if she does have eggs, it is even more important that she is eating right!
Oh,
