First Egg, by itself, no evidence of digging

[KramersChameleons]

She hasn't dug any holes in the dirt. Not even test holes. Been spending time down at the bottom of cage. The egg was just laying by itself on the surface. White cream color.

Normal?

What species, how old is she, did you breed her, is this her first clutch?

Panther, 10 months, first breed with my male Ambilobe.

Try digging a hole or two with a spoon down just a couple of inches, maybe she will continue the process. Panther females tend to lay their eggs in the afternoon or evening, give her a little privacy at this time.

When were they mated?

Oops, missed that one. I'm hoping it was about a month ago.

Hi. Her first mate didn't take in early July, but this one has been 28 days for the first egg im mentioning here.

She should lay soon then....hopefully.
@bobcochran said..."Oops, missed that one. I'm hoping it was about a month ago"...that's what happens when you get old! How old is that?? It must be older than me eh?? .

Ok, thanks guys. I spooned a couple holes as starters. I'll see where we're at after work tomorrow. Thanks. I'll keep posted.
