Possibly pregnant and not eating?

My girl panther was mated about 3 weeks ago, and she hasn't been eating. I usually feed her every other day, about 6 crickets or superworms since she goes back and forth, but for the past week or so she will eat only one of her given food and decline the rest. She drinks well and her feces are fine, just minimal. I also don't notice her getting too much fatter, I figured she'd be much larger by now. Any help is appreciated!
 
Haven't seen you around! :) how are you? My females appetite decreases to almost nothing, if your girl is pregnant she should be laying in about a week. Mine get really active and start crawling all over the screen. Sometimes changing favorite sleeping spot :D as Long as she is drinking and looks good and poop is good, she should do ok! Sometimes it can be difficult to see the eggs, I like to take pictures then look at them, then I can usually see right above the hip the shape of the eggs when she is resting. Weighing them makes it easier to track there weight. They remind me of snakes lol, they can carry so many eggs without hardly showing!:D well I hope you will be getting eggs soon! Good luck!:)
 
Thx Suzi! Been good, just busy :/. Ya, shes been up and down her cage a bit, but only to her 3 regular spots. It's pretty tough to determine just cause she lays down and fattens up, but moves and gets skinnier haha. Yes, she's got about 6 inches of dirt in a large tub at the bottom of her cage, i check about every week to makes sure its still moist and packed. Temps been reading about 81 degrees and 44 humidity when dryer. First time with chameleons and first time with eggs for any reptile, so I'm pretty excited! :D
