Digging in soil

[Ricardopalma12]

My veiled chameleon is digging in the soil. I bought her 3 days ago this is the 3rd day with her and yesterday she did it once and today she did it twice. Why is this?

She is likely looking for a place to lay her eggs. Read this,it should help. https://www.chameleonforums.com/blogs/egg-laying-and-the-laying-bin.345/

Female digging = trying to look for a place to lay eggs. Research egg laying bins. here is a good start: https://www.chameleonforums.com/blogs/egg-laying-and-the-laying-bin.345/

I guess I owe you the beer....lol

But she is around a month or 2 is she already trying to lay eggs?

I doubt she is a month or two old, post pics.

The other possibility is that her cage is too hot and she is digging to get away from it. Pictures of her and her cage would help.

Not a clear pic, but she does not look like a month or two old.

I moved her vines around later on the day when I took this pic.

How am I supposed to fill it out?

 

[timw1]

Yes, she looks like a juvenile, please read the caresheets again. For starters the substrate on the bottom needs to go, you need live plants, and you need a linear uvb light. Read, read some more and ask questions.

Copy it into a new post and edit it to include the information.
