Tips for breeding veils chameleons?

[reptileguy112]

I have a female veil chameleon about 10 month old (64g) and I want to breed her with a male soon. Is there any way to make sure they won't just fight? I have never bred chameleons before so I don't know if you have to raise temp or something like that to "get them in the mood". Any and a tips for breeding 'em are appreciated, I would sure love to get me some baby chams!

Hold the female outside the males cage and watch the reactions. If the female reacts in a non-receptive way....hissing, rocking back and forth, gaping, taking on a dark background color, etc. then put her back in her cage and try again a few days later. If you do this (holding her outside the male's cage) they can see each other without being able to fight.

If she appears calm when shown to the male, doesn't inflate her body or hiss or gape, etc. then she is likely receptive. If the male reacts properly towards her then she may be placed into his cage. Its important to keep an eye on them in case things suddenly turn bad.

Also, I would not breed her until she is a year old or full grown. She will also need her sexually mature/receptive coloration.
