I can’t get my 8 month old veiled chameleon to eat anything

[VeiledChameleon1212]

i have an 8 month old veiled chameleon that won’t eat. A few days ago she ate one cricket that’s all I have seen her eat for a while besides a few wax worms.Is there any way I could get her to eat something?

If she's getting a lot of crickets, she might have bored. Try super worms, flies, black soldier flies and larvae or green banana roaches. Anything that flies will usually break a hunger strike.

Also, dubia roaches seem to be working wonders on my girl. She loves them so much, she literally refuses to eat anything else Also, I know that hornworms are usually pretty attractive to normal chameleons (not my own) because of their vulnerable/slow nature and bright colored body. Just know that these are special treats, not to be used as a diet staple.

She might need to lay eggs. Females lay eggs without a male even being around. They often stop eating before they lay. Do you have a laying bin for her. If she needs to lay and not provided with a proper laying bin she will become egg bound and die. Please post a photo of her.

Here’s how to set up a laying bin. https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/laying-bin-set-up-educational-video.77225/

Did the vet do an x-ray to see if she had eggs? An x-ray is the only forsure way to tell.

Right not her stomach it flat that means she is absorbing light can you still determine if she needs to lay eggs???
