Well, I don't recommend substrate at all. And a laying bin filled with play sand or organic fertilizer free soil needs to be provided. Do a quick search.

Check out http://raisingkittytheveiledchameleon.blogspot.com to see how to stop egg production in veileds.

Wow, thanks a bunch! I'm sure you hear it often but you are QUITE the helper. I appreciate the advice.

Thanks! My first cham so I don't know what to expect .. I've just been reading on this topic lately and I want to be prepared. So I have a veiled female and she is about 16 months old. I don't know if she has layed eggs yet. How can I prevent her from becoming gravid? Do you have any links to info on the warning signs of being gravid .. if she is, I have coco plantation soil on the ground. Can she use that to lay her eggs in or should I use a seperate bowl with something else?

In short, you can cut back feeding to every other day or so, and lower temp's to the low 80's. ALWAYS provide a laying bin though. I had a 7.5 month old female veiled who I did this with, and she still produced a clutch.
