Help me out ?

[Mardyen96]

Okay lately for the past 2 days and half my chameleon has been having her mouth open.??? Also, I'm new to this and I haven't been really wondering if I am doing anything wrong, cause everything seems to be okay till I noticed her mouth has been a bit open and I wanted to know if you guys can also help me by telling me if I'm doing anything wrong with, lighting, food, temperature, anything ??

P.s
At the moment I do not but soon will have a mister or frogger.

How old is she? Is it only open when she's in the basking area? Does she have a place to dig in her cage in case she has eggs assuming it's a veiled? Is there any bubbling mucus in her mouth? Noise when she breaths?
Just a bit open? What specific supplements do you use and how often for each? What do you feed/gutload the insects with?

Please post some recent photos too.

If I'm not mistaken, I read something about this and read that they do that to regulate there body temperature if they get to hot. But don't quote me. I just read this somewhere bc my veiled chameleon Calcifer will do the same sometimes. Not often but he's done it. He even did it today so I hope you can get some more advice! Good luck!

Besides her mouth being open I noticed yesterday and today she was on the ground and yes she is a veiled chameleon

That just means your basking area is too hot, make sure it is atleast 6 inches below your light, and your basking spot is between 85 - 95F. She could also be gravid, i dont know too much about that though, might want to ask someone that keeps female veileds.
