Veiled Gender - Please Confirm

[Swow]

I recently purchased a veiled chameleon. It’s about a year and a half years old. I was told it is probably female, but it has not laid eggs at all. I took it to a vet. She said she couldn’t feel eggs but also could not tell me its gender.

I have a picture of the hind feet. Can anyone please help to confirm the gender? Thanks!

Agree with gloriawood, girl. I’ve attached a male back foot for your comparison. What is your feeding schedule and temperature at basking? We have a husbandry form I can attach if you would like it reviewed to make sure your little girl is getting everything she needs correctly.

Welcome!!!

Also, do you have a lay in set up for her? If not I can share what works well for others.

Welcome to the the forum!

Can you please post some photos of all of her? If she’s not laying eggs, I hope it’s not because she’s developed follicular stasis or dystocia….but rather that her diet and temperatures were such that she “couldn’t” produce eggs.

Enjoy your new chameleon!

It could take up to 2 weeks for a new chameleon to get settled into their new home. During that time you want to give your cham space, no handling, and you don’t really want them to see you just staring at them. You want them to have a good first impression in their new home. I did this with my cham and he has settled in perfectly. Here are 2 video links that you should watch for when you get your new chameleon: Chameleon Academy Neptune the Chameleon
