Pregnant chameleon????

[Tommysmart_]

Hello I have noticed my chameleon looking bigger. Is he/she pregnant I say that because it has one heel spurt, a medium sized crest, but the patterns of a girl. And it is looking bigger.

How old is she?
How much do you feed her in week?
Could be gravid.

I that a burn on her side.

I wanna say around 8 months I feed her every other day around 5-10 crickets

Is that a burn in her side?

If she's 8 months old you might need to cut down the amount of food you're giving her...but don't start until after the eggs are laid since she's likely gravid right now.

What's the temperature in the basking area?
Do you have a laybin in the cage?

 

[Tommysmart_]

I believe it is a bruise and the basking temp is usually around 80-85 and I just added a laying bin

You can test the basking light to make sure it won't burn her by holding your hand under it inside the cage s close as you can get with the top of your hand. If you want to move your hand, then it's too hot.
