He didn’t mention calcifies or ruptures. I don’t know if that means he didn’t see anything that appeared that way or if he didn’t have the expertise. To my unqualified eye, the eggs in the X-ray looked pretty consistent relative to each other. More of a shadow on the X-ray than bright like...
Yes, I was worried about her bone density and eggs so we took a look. According to the vet, the bone density looked low but not at the MBD point that I had been panicking about but enough that he could see it a bit in the x-ray and thus be worried about calcium deficiency as we try to get these...
I have a thermometer tucked in the corner so I can keep an eye on the temps. Good call on the vent holes, I am stressed out by this whole thing and didn't think about the fact that without some ventilation I have basically made an easy-bake oven. Vent holes have been added.

Brody, thanks for the UVB sheet. I’ll get a better one ordered today.
Attached is a picture of the lay box without her privacy curtain on top. It is 16w x 20l x 18h with 8” of a 2-1 sand soil mixture. You can see the test tunnel I dug with a spoon and left for her to see that it is a good...
All,
Thanks for the thoughts and advice so far. We just left the Vet and he was very knowledgeable, which was good. The bad is that she is super egg bound; the Vet was pretty negative about her prognosis. I feel like a bastard for letting her get in this condition. I thought we were doing a...
All,
First, thanks ahead of time for the help and advice, our Penelope is a sick little lady. We have an appointment with a vet tomorrow. He says he has some chameleon experience but we live in a small town so I am guessing his experience is limited. So, I need advice from all of you experts...
