@jannb may be able to help you with the specifics. You will need a laying bin about 50/50 pland sand and organic soil that is moist enough to hold a tunnel. Usually you will know she is getting ready to lay when she starts pacing.

How hot is his basking spot?

Are you able to get a video if her doing it? It would help us target the problem better. Also how hot is her basking temperature?

I use fishing line, but you have to be careful so you dont break the screen. I think thumb tacks work pretty well and I use zipties for inside the cage holding things together.

I would shorted how often you spray but increase how long you spray to at least a minute. This may not be why he is not eating but it will help his greatly. Try to add some variety to his diet. My vieled loves hornworms, he cant resist them. Maybe try some of those, dubia roaches, black soldier...

Food is a good tool also. You can use the food to try to lure her on your hand. Once she is on, you can continue to do it each day you feed her and over time she may get used to you. This worked for my male but every cham is different.

Pothos is the best with a lot of water in my opinion. I usually will trim off pieces of the mother plant and sprout them in water! I have a pieces I have never planted and its a good 3+ years just kept in water

Too cute!!!

Why didnt I buy a mistking sooner? Its literally a life changer!

I would also recommend getting rid of the waterfall and investing in a high quality misting system. They are a whole lot better for chams

I would actually highly not recommend getting from a reptile expo. Many of the animals there are also very stressed and possibly sick. My reptile expo sucks. I also lost my first cham after 12 days and I got him from an expo. I had the setup perfect but the problem was the animal. He was...

I agree, it should be around 85F

Very true! Chams are great at hiding illness, sometimes so good when you notice its too late. Stark looked perfectly fine at the store, he was active and bright. But, you REALLY cant know if the cham is healthy or not until you take him/her to the vet for a checkup and fecal.

This is true but also false. Although petco is not the BEST place to get from, they sell them at all different ages depending on how long they have been there. I got my veiled from petco and I estimated he was around 5 months old. He did have a very large vet bill though. After not eating I got...

Hopefully @jannb can help. She is a veiled whisperer

Could you post a picture of him?

https://www.chameleonforums.com/how-ask-help-66/ Could you also fill this out? it would help us a ton

Could you post a recent picture of him? have you ever gotten him tested or parasites?

https://www.chameleonforums.com/care/caresheets/jacksons/ this will give you all the care information you need. Keep her hydrated and the humidity up. @Remkon

I would also highly suggest this. My veiled goes CRAZY for them! He loves them
