Normal, Chonkey or gravid?

So I’ve been looking though my chameleon cam that last few days due to a trip I’m on. I have a friend taking care of Nachito for the next few weeks,
So I’m not in person to visually check on her

As I’ve been looking though her cam, I feel she’s looking chonkey and that making me worried, what if she’s going to lay eggs when I’m gone!?

Here various photos taken from the video cam and one from my friend over last few days

What do you guys think?

She doesn’t look gravid to me. She may have started producing some eggs, but doesn’t look near to laying time. They tend to get very round and plump and sometimes you can even see the little egg bulges. Always be prepared for laying though and your husbandry is spot on, so she should be fine. She is looking fantastic! 🥰
 
IMHO she looks (really) healthy, important is to remind how she looks right now, this is how she needs to look after her gravid/egg laying period. Probably, from now on she slowly starts to grow and gets bigger by the week, but that’s really hard to see, because it goes at slow steady pace and your husbandry is spot one, therefore no big clutches (got all faith in you for that).
At the moment you notice it for real, she’s already getting close.
Our girl just laid for the fourth time and she’s skinny athletic babe once again 😌

Kept track of mine and also the first time troubles, as you can read it’s learning curve.
