In regards to the eggs I found this post @kinyonga provided about setting up an incubation box for the eggs.

That’s not by me…

I'm pretty sure she wasn't housed with the male. She was only in the enclosure with the male for the show. I will try and get a box as soon as I can!

That’s long enough…mating doesn’t take long at all.
There will be fertile eggs…almost 100% for sure.

I hate to say it but if they put her in with a male at the show I doubt they kept her by herself prior. Totally irresponsible... uggg. In that pic she is showing extreme gravid colors due to the male being near her and her not wanting any part of it.

You have already gotten great information and nothing I can add to.

Alright. At least I know what to expect!

You and everyone else have been so helpful. I hate when breeders put two chammies of the opposite sex together unless they are TRYING to breed. Do you know how to tell if the eggs are fertile or not?

I got the link from one of your posts, wanted to give you the credit

I’m not very experienced with eggs but when they are infertile they are smaller and mold sooner rather than later once set up for incubation. I would suggest posting a pic of the eggs once they are set up in the incubation box.

Sounds good, thank you!

They will also mold over pretty quickly from my understanding if they are not fertile. FYI if they are fertile her follow up clutches can have fertile eggs as well.

Gotcha. I never even knew that follow-up clutches could still have fertile eggs! Idk where I'm going to re-home my chameleon babies (after they're born) if they're fertile!! At least I can post about them on Chameleon Forums if anyone is interested in Veiled babies!!

People are often looking for veileds and there are very limited to no decent resources.

I know!! That's the problem I was having when looking for Daffie! People like to breed Panthers because they're worth more, but almost nobody breeds Veilds because they're not worth that much
