I’m not sure why your chameleon is doing that right now..but a checkup with a good chameleon vet is a good idea.

I can tell you though, that I would remove the moss and replace the artificial plants with real non toxic well washed one asap. Veiled females are famous for munching plants…especially when they are old enough to reproduce.

It would be a good idea to have a husbandry checkup done too…here’s the link…

Did you dig the holes in the lay bin or did she? Has she been digging at all? You will want to keep her temperatures no higher than 80F and be careful not to overfeed her constantly as well to prevent huge clutches from being produced and prevent follicular stasis and dystocia. The can lay eggs without being mated.
