Johnstoni eggs...

[BackwaterReptiles]

This afternoon I received six good-looking T. johnstoni eggs from a very plump (and uncooperative) female who I literally designed a new laying bin for in an attempt to get her to lay. Finally, today was the day.

I've got 2.3 johnstoni in the group, with one male who is the most aggressive chameleon (towards other males) that I have ever seen.

Digging up the eggs...

Here she is afterwards...

And the waiting begins...

Thanks biffle!

I have the eggs in a room that stays a fairly constant 72F (that's what the thermostat is set at). I'm not sure of the locale, sorry.

If they are the recent import, I believe that only rwenzori came in. I can confirm that if you post a pic of the males.

Yes it was a fairly recent import, maybe 2-4 weeks ago or so. Here's a picture of one of the males, he's the aggressive one:
