I took her to the vet and had to put her down this morning....:( I never realized how attached I was to her. At least she's not suffering anymore... I want to thank everyone that helped me through this, everyone has been a great help. I feel like I tried my hardest but I also feel like I...

It sounds like he may be sick and you should probably see a vet. You should also fill out the form from here https://www.chameleonforums.com/how-ask-help-66/ so everyone here will know your husbandry.

The problem is i can't drive to Boston now, and they are the only ones that can see me now. her eggs are infertile too.

Called the vet last Monday, got the receptionist. She said the doctor was unable to come to the phone when I called, but she did say again that chams can go several months with egg and be fine. So I left a message and a number for him to call me back. No returned call...:mad: She's has seemed...

Yes I did dig it up thinking the same thing, but no eggs. And she is still just as lumpy as ever.

The container shes in is a clear container, but there's a towel around it 75% of so nobody can see her when when she's down on the ground unless they stand above the container and look down. She does have a stick in there for climbing that reaches above the height of the towel so she can see...

Hmm still no eggs yet. I never pointed her in the direction of the tunnel I made, but I have seen her on the ground the past few days so I'm sure she has seen it. She seems to be back to her normal self and is also back to eating. She hasn't dug any holes since her last hole collapsed. I've...

Instead of substrate, I have several layers of cheep washcloths on the bottom of mine to help soak up the water dripping off my plants and to help the humidity. I just keep rotating them out and washing them. It seems to work pretty good.

ok I'll try that and see if she will go back to digging. I wasn't sure of they would actually lay their eggs in something that isn't theirs. EDIT- Should I try to point her to the tunnel or should I just let her find it? Or will this just freak her out? I'm afraid if I let her find it, she...

Yesterday and today, she hasn't dug at all. He most recent hole has collapsed and hasn't done anything since. I contacted my vet for any suggestions and about how long before it's too long. He said that chameleons can go amazing lengths of time with eggs in them and still be fine. He also...

actually I thought of doing something similar, I set up an old webcam I had so I can watch her without her knowing.

How old are these pygmies? Are they all in the same enclosure?

last night after she fell asleep I carefully put a towel around the outside of her tank to prevent any visual access (it's clear plastic). How will I know when she is done? I don't want to go snooping around to try to see whats going on, but I also don't want to neglect her like I said in my...

Ok, thank you. I didn't want to neglect her by not giving her anything but I also didn't want to disturb her by giving her something. From what I see so far, this forum is a wonderful place!

So are you saying to not supply water and calcium during this process?? I've never got a definite answer on this question. Everything that I have read has said water and calcium are very important during this process, and if it is, how is it done?

I closed the door and left for the day so I wouldn't be tempted to look. Now what is the best way to give her water and calcium during this process? I have a dripper, but the the adjustment valve is touchy and likes to stop randomly so I've stopped using it. I was thinking about spraying the...

its moist enough for me to make a tunnel, but not too moist to collect water at the bottom of the tunnel. She's back to digging now and I'm trying my hardest not to have anyone disturb her. I'm not sure how well her tunnel is going to be, as she is digging in the corner of the tank almost...

She is in a separate egg laying container right now and has been for a couple days. the container is a Rubbermaid plastic tote thats about 17"x30"x13" (if I remember correctly) with about 9 inches of soil/sand mix. There is also an empty gallon water jug in there to "simulate" a rock/root...

No she has not. I didn't even know she was gravid until the other day when I saw her scratching at the ground. She didn't show any of the dark colorations that I have read about until after the first day of digging, and it wasn't until then when I noticed the egg lumps in her stomach. By the...

Thank you I was wrong on the basking temp. The temp I said is actually the temp read on the thermometer, which is actually too close to the light, but there isn't really a good spot to place it to determine the basking spot temp without her actually crawling on it. shes about 1 foot below the...
