She's a beautiful girl. :)
She wouldn't be gravid unless she's been mated with a male, but they still lay eggs regardless of being mated. Her eggs will just be infertile.
Always have her laying bin available to her for when she is ready to lay her clutch, but at this time she doesn't look...
Doubt that was from a previous shed, if anything its the start of his new shed. Many of us find that information from pestore employees aren't always correct.
We never had the nose thing with our first male veiled, but I noticed our Loki has the same thing going on like yours. I read that its...
Females can be sexually mature as young as 6 months. I would recommend having a laying bin available for her. (not saying she is going to lay any time soon)
As far as her behavior, they generally don't act aggressive or change colors when they are receptive. She either thought your glove on...
Our little Loki. He's such a little booger.
I'd post one of Zeke and Cami too but I don't have any of them stressed on my laptop right now. That and they're generally pretty calm overall. :D
I noticed my female displaying this type of pattern lately when she basks under her lights. Not all the time though, just lately on occasions.
I've seen the receptive female video that's posted, and she has displayed those colors along with the gaping mouth when she sees our male.
Lately...
Love when they look all cuddled up with their tails curled.
Loki is still sensitive to flashing lights, sorry little one. The other two will sleep through anything. Haha!
Never in a million years did I ever think I'd own a Chameleon. Now I have 3 and 34 little eggies due in 4-8 months...
Cami @20months is about 1/2in. shy from a solid 14in. She just finished a shed so she may just finish off that 14in! :D
Zeke @ about 8months is almost 12in.
Loki @ about 5months is 8in.
I believe a female can show receptiveness around 60-90 days after laying??
Incubation can take 6-12 months to hatch depending on temps and the eggs.
The female will show receptive signs when and if she is ready. It is possible for her to retain sperm from the previous copulation as I've read...
Loki has usually been in the hiding for the past few days since his new enclosure change.
Today I noticed he was out and about and tried to see if he'd tolerate any handling. NOPE!
After a few head butts, hissing, and attempts to bite I finally got him out after he was finished being a...
I'm glad to see you've given in to your heart's calling. I'm sure Monty has quite the attachment to you as you do to him.
You say he needs you... But deep down you need him too. You strengthen each other. You give him strength by caring for him and providing for his needs, and in return he...
thanks jann! I was getting worried, and I have been keeping a close eye on his tail for any discoloration.
I just feel like 2wks is really long... I hope he finishes it soon :/
Overdue for a warm bath
It has been 2wks since the rest of his body shed. His tail seems to be the problem area of shedding because this is the 2nd time he has shed where his tail doesn't finish.
Nothing has drastically changed in his enclosure. The only difference is the changing of seasons...
Every chameleon is different, some need a little more time than others.
Try offering worms as well to give him options. I used the same concept with the crix cup, but for the worms I use more of a small plastic water drainage tray used for small potted plants. I got them at a 99cent store...
I hotglued a piece of dowel rod in the center of my cup for the crix to walk up and down. Occassionally one might jump out onto the screen, but most stay inside the cup. By the time i get home they're all gone.
I also noticed your cage is sitting on the floor??? Although your cage is bigger...
Hi everyone!
So I am trying to provide as much information to the future owners of my baby vields (when they hatch and are ready to be released to others' care).
The following information is what I have so far. If you can help narrow things down, add more wording or proper advice, or...
