My non-mated female veiled chameleon has dropped eggs before (about 2 dozen), but this time she has only dropped about 3 eggs, and is digging in her sand cave furiously. We are concerned that she may be egg bound. Is there anything we can do to help. Unfortunately our vet won't be available...

Thank you, I will read them. I looked at them, but apparently didn't read carefully.

I've read that I should be giving my veiled chameleon "Repti-Vite", is this true?

Poor baby! I will be very careful to make sure there are no crickets left in Lizzies habitat overnight.

Thank you Psychobunny and Nick Barta. I haven't been cup feeding, but free range. I usually put about 6 or 7 medium/large crickets in a day, plus every couple of days a few waxworms. Sometimes she eats a little mustard greens. I dust the crickets with calcium supplement a couple of times a week...
