Thank you for the advice, already putting one together for her. Much appreciation to all you lovely lizard people
Welcome to the forum! Pretty little female you have there!
Panther chameleon females can lay eggs without being mated.
If they are overfed or kept too warm it can lead to reproductive issues...so you will want to control that. We can explain more about it.
How many insects do you feed her in a week? What supplements do you use (mainly looking at calcium, phos, D3 and type of vitamin A) and how heavily and how often for each?
What is the basking temperature?
What specific UVB light do you use? Long linear tube type light?
Failure to provide an appropriate egglaying container can lead to dystocia (egg binding) and death.

A lay bin should be added as a permanent fixture by the time they are 6 months old so they get used to it and it does not cause stress.

Females also require lower basking temps and reduced feeding to control clutch size in order to reduce complications. Answering the questions above will be helpful for you.

If she's gravid already it may not be the time to cut her feeding back...this is a hard call...we want to prevent them from producing too many eggs and having reproductive issues as a result...but if they are already making the eggs, then they need to have enough nutrients...like calcium, etc to be able to get through the process.
