Thank a Bunch!

What information are you looking for? Seems like every couple of months you are looking for info on breeding carpets or incubation. I am confused as to what information you think you are missing.

Maybe it would help if you explained what exactly you are looking for.

Here is a really good article or try Reptile mag this month. There is a big lat article.

Hey Ryan!

Thats an awesome article! Thanks a bunch..!!! I'm trying to look for information on different incubation temps. and how long it takes at the certain temp to hatch..Aprox..the article Vamp directed me to..had a few different temp ranges..and at the temps I have my clutch at it'll be about 7-9 month to hatch out. I'm also trying to find something that will help me with candeling them as well, to see if I can see fully formed babies?! I have my clutch at incubation at 65-78F with no moisture, there current temp is 67.6 with a 99% humidity..have not added any water since they have been in there since January. Do you know at what month do the babies start to form?
Let me know!

I think everyone is looking for what you want to know. :D It is my understanding that the wide range of location lats are found and not knowing exactly where they are coming from makes it hard to tell. Temps are different so knowing what temp would require knowing where they came from. I have heard of 15 month incubation times. Dooley1 on this forum wrote the article I sent you to. He is a great resource.

I have egg kept an egg 68-72f that hatched in 6 months 14 days. Others kept the same way that are now 8 months old that have not hatched and anther clutch at 5 months kept at 68f constantly. So I will see what happens with that one. I hope I will have some information on the incubation when they hatch. I have another clutch on its way that I will try another method.
 
In my opinion candling chameleon eggs is a waste of time as conclusive results are dubious at best.
Better to put your efforts into caring for the animals that are walking around and let the eggs take care of themselves undisturbed.
Patience is the greatest quality a chameleon keeper can have.

wow okay so its a pretty wide range when they can hatch out. Yeah I would love to know the out come is with your eggs that you have. Now that my eggs are going on 7 months today. I've been checking them daily...Just to see if theres any action going on? None of them started sweating or colapsed yet...I can see the veigns through out the eggs..but no real body structure in them..But I'm sure theres something in there after this long...?! After what month mark do you start checked your eggs frequently?? I've been checking them once a day since the 5th month...is that okay?? Let me know!

:D

lol thanks! Yeah I'm excited I cant wait till these little guys hatch out!!! Need an expert opinion on how my eggs are looking! :) I think there doing pretty good since there over there 7 month mark!
 
8 Months Old Today...and still no babies yet!!! Man I just want these guys to hatch out already! :(
 
can you regulate the temps? I do not do this and am NOT telling you to do this, but you can up the temp 1 degree a couple days until it is about 5 degrees hotter for diapause. Like i said i dont do it but some people do and they have success at it. Research it before you do it, cuz like i said i dont do it and i am no pro at it so my info might be wrong. I say you have waited so long why risk messing it up. Just a few more weeks possible a couple months tops.
 
jeeze

these guys better come out with wings for taking this long!!!!

but at least you know they most likely wont hatch premature?
 
yeah since I moved...the eggs are now in warmer temps..trying to keep it nice a regulated but it's tuff! ahh
