    Would infertile eggs still be in good condition?

    I'm trying to just chill and wait it out but they're making me antsy. I assumed they were infertile, I had my female for 33 or 34 days before she laid and she never was in contact with a male in my care. But, I kept the eggs for the chance that she had contact with a male before I purchased her...

    This breaks my heart!

    Yeah. I try not to handle mine too much because it can stress them, but whenever I handle my male he absolutely fiiiiights me to not come out of the cage... But once he's out, he refuses to go back in and I have to stuff him onto a branch because suddenly, my once horrifying hand, is better than...

    Help, my veiled dropped an egg ??????

    Can you describe the laying bin you've set up a little more? How big, is it in her enclosure or do you have a big separate one you put her in etc. I'm assuming since you've had other females that have laid you know the drill, but I think that information would help narrow down the problem or...

    Gravid Female Question

    I put mine in a planter with some drainage at the bottom and it gets wet when misting but since it drains a little it never gets too wet. That said, my female dug in a plant. But the soil was wet there as well.

    how long until she lays

    Has she seen you peeking? My girl saw me but kept going and laid all her eggs. It took her two days in total one hole she abandoned after a day, and the next day she dug and laid.

    A Stressful week.

    This week has been rather awful. Mostly for personal reasons. I'm struggling to keep up in school and feeling down over it. And, of course, this week was the week I got my new male panther, and the week my female panther decided to lay. Most of my friends could not care LESS about chameleons, so...

    Hornworms weirded me out...

    Mine got huge. I think the moths are smaller than the chams and would be edible at least by the males. I tried to feed a heiffer sized hornworm to my female today but she spit it out. She ate a slightly smaller one with no issue. I was hoping to feed them off sooner but she picked this week to...

    Panther cham laying in potted plant instead of laying bin

    :) I'm on the lookout for those products today. Right now the only thing I have is like, home depot and lowes and they always have vermiculite/perlite products but not just plain vermiculite or perlite. Today she ate the biggest hornworm I thought she could handle, so it seems all is well.

    Panther cham laying in potted plant instead of laying bin

    Haha Sorry! She laid 28 very white oval shaped eggs. I am 99.9% sure they are infertile but I'm keeping them anyway. Didn't have vermiculite or anything proper (my local stores had nothing last time I was there) so they're in a container with organic soil and sand but like I said, I am pretty...

    Panther cham laying in potted plant instead of laying bin

    FYI, she laid her eggs today in her bin. Just letting anyone who reads this thread know she's all done and it went well.

    Panther cham laying in potted plant instead of laying bin

    Thanks chams1. I ended up moving her to a separate bin before I saw your post but either way, I made the substrate in the laying bin similar to what I had the plants potted in (organic soil and sand). If she hadn't stopped digging and gone back to hanging out in her plants I would have left her.

    Hornworms

    I got some at that show too and a few of mine are getting HUGE but a few are still moderate sized. I hope my female finishes laying soon so I can give her a big hornworm treat when she's done. Otherwise I'm gonna have some coccoons in a few days, haha!

    Panther cham laying in potted plant instead of laying bin

    Haha, right? Mostly I need to clean the cage because she threw the dirt all over. Either way, she abandoned the hole. I'm preparing her a bigger separate laying container (In a largish storage box.) and will put her in there when I'm done and see how it goes. Hopefully better!

    Panther cham laying in potted plant instead of laying bin

    Ok thanks guys. I have to leave now for a few hours, I'm helping a friend move today of all days! Ugh. But I peeked for the last time and she's still digging and is deeper in the hole so I'll just leave her and at least I wont be here tempted to peek at her.

    Panther cham laying in potted plant instead of laying bin

    I've had Priscilla for just over a month and for most of that time she appeared like she COULD have eggs. I put a laying bin in, which was a large-ish round planter with moist sand. She knows it's there. Today I got out of bed (just now) and saw her tail deep in a hole she dug in a potted...

    are their any niche suppies that are lacking?

    Seconded on the drainage/cage stands with drainage built in. I spend a lot of $$ to find a cabinet that was the right size. I mean, there's a lot of furniture around but most of it is just the wrong size to fit under a 24X24X48 cage. I don't want my cage to hang over the sides and I don't want...
