Will it be very unusual for a female panther chameleon to be in heat and still receptive after being with a male for five days?

She's 13 months old, 71grams. Pls see pic attached below

Separate them. That looks like her gravid or stress colors. I never put them together and just leave them. I only put them together a couple hours at the time so I can keep a close eye on them. Many times on here I have read about one hurting or killing the other when left together.
 
I have separated them.

her mouth is not always like that, but i am suspecting that her previous owner is not giving her enough calcium which is why i noticed a tendency for her to keep her mouth slightly opened. i have since been giving her calcium supplements frequently plus gutloading my crickets with calcium-rich vegetables when i got her about a month ago.
 
I bought a Female Panther Chameleon yesterday and placed her in the male cage at night while he was sleeping and when the lights turn on the next day he saw her when first thing and went to her and she was very receptive and they have been the whole day in the same cage, for how long do I keep them together?
