I have panthers. Soil is enough wet to lay. I looked eggs with a lamp. They are infertilizei.
This "can" be considered normal. It may or may not be a good or ok thing.
It really depends on her level of health, how old she is, and if she has done
this before, even if you didn't know it. Though my concern is that usually
when this happens, it's a health issue of some kind. That said, it could be
different factors that would cause her to not lay the eggs all at once. One
would be, that if she's not healthy enough, "and" if this is the first time she
has had fertile eggs, she won't go and lay them like she's supposed to. The
reason is that a female's level of health goes through a draining process
during the final stages of the egg development inside her, which is normal.
That said, when a female isn't healthy enough by the time the eggs are
ready for laying, "she" won't be ready. Her body tells her what she can and
can't do. It's just the way it is with chameleons. This includes whether or
not she may feel sick, which could prove fatal for the rest of the eggs, and
if that happens, that could make her even more sick, resulting in her not
getting all the eggs out in a timely matter, which in turn results in
egg-bounding. I hope none of this is the case with your female.
Tell me more about your female......
1 -- Is this the first clutch of "fertile" eggs she's ever had?
2 -- Was 20 days ago the first time she has ever mated?
3 -- Can you tell if she is ill?
4a -- Does she seem to be holding onto branches strongly?
4b -- ....or does she seem weaker than usual?
5 -- Does her tail seem to be weak at all?
6a -- Is she using her tail for anything at all?
6b -- If she's using her tail, can you tell if she uses it to climb with?
7 -- What would you consider to be her normal daily habits and behavior?
8 -- What are her eating habits?
9 -- What is her usual diet?
10 -- How old is she?
11 -- Has she ever dug and buried eggs before?
12 -- Has she ever used this soil before, or what has she used before?
I would ask if you are giving her enough supplements(calcium), but the eggs
in the photo seem to verify that she may have received enough calcium,
......"but"......we haven't seen the rest of the eggs yet. Time will tell.
Before considering taking her to the vet to get her checked out,
make sure she does not seem ill or overly weak, weak back legs, very
weak tail, sucken skin, sucken eyes, dry mouth, pale tongue, or
white-fuzzied nostriles, etc...)
If you monitor her a fair amount each day, then that's good, but now
spend "more" time with her, keeping your eye on her a lot closer, checking
for the above signs.
Here's some things you can do:
** Check again her level of health and for any abnormal habits.
** Study her current habits for anything unsual like weakness in
her legs, arms, and tail usage.
** Study and remember how the soil looks.
** Take as much time as you can while you are at home to see
if she ever goes to the soil to dig.
** Look for any places on the soil that looks
like she may have attempted to dig.
** If you see that it looks like she tried, then the soil may
not be right for her. Like some chameleons, she may be
picky about what she chooses to dig and bury with.
(mine mostly prefer damp sand) If you see her try, then you know
the choice of soil is wrong for her. Try damp sand at this point.
** If you never see her dig "and" you don't see any sign of her
having tried to dig, then she may be ill, or her health prior to mating
(and during egg development) has been poor.
** If she is very healthy, and you never see her dig, but you "do" see
dropped eggs, then the eggs are likely premature, and something
happened during the development process that caused them to develop
too quickly and her body didn't give her the signal to lay them yet, but
they are being slowly forced out.
** If ^-this is the case, incubate any eggs. It's worth a try, but likely
there may only be a 30% chance the eggs will survive and grow. That's
the bad part about "early eggs".
** You may also try to get a very large plastic storage tub, and fill it with
sand, anywhere between half and 3/4 full, depending of the size of the
container. First, poke holes in the sand bigger than your thumb at each 4
corners, and 4 holes in a square in the central area. Now, pour a considerably
fair amount of water evenly at each corner of the surface of the sand, then
pour a bit more 4 central areas of the middle, but not too much....just until
the same is still mostly dry at the top, but enough that you can tell that it's
getting pretty damp. This will ensure the sand gets evenly damp.
...........take the lid that came with the container, and cut out the inside of the
shape of it......about 3 to 4 inches away from the edges. Now get some mesh
screen material, and some cardboard. Cut about 1 to 2 inches in strips of the
cardboard, and cut a large enough piece of the mesh screen material that is bigger
than the hole you made in the lid. Lay the mesh and lay it evenly over the hole.
Now lay the strips of cardboard along all the sides atop the mesh around the hole.
Use a stapler and staple the cardboard down all around, and you will now have a
viewing area, area for hanging a warm lamp a few inches above the lid, well vented,
and is now an anti-escape lid that will ensure that you can leave your female in there
out of sight and make sure she digs in private.
This has proven successful for me many many times.
See if she digs at all. I would give her atleast a couple hours to try to dig.
If this doesn't work, let me know, as there may be something seriously wrong with her.
I've seen many different things happen with eggs: fertile, non-fertile, early
ones, healthy ones, unhealthy ones, etc.... I've seen it all.
Like I said before, there may be several varying factors involved that can
cause a number of different things to happen unexpectantly. If there is anything
wrong with her at this point, then you may need to seek a vet and get her
checked for anything that may be possibly wrong. You could save her life, and
the life of her future babies.
I love what I do, but sometimes, I admit, it's not easy, considering whether
if you think you're doing everything right, but then something goes wrong....
....that is "sometimes" just nature.
maybe they are waiting for 30th day
