Never seen these colors before?

The eggs will likely be infertile.
While I don't agree with the tone of some of the previous posters, I agree with the warnings about your care practices.
There are MANY aspects of your care that concern me. A mirror can cause stress to a chameleon, as they do not recognize their own reflection and another chameleon is an intruder and a threat. Other aspects of your husbandry have been commented on, such as lights off at night, proper supplementation, a screen enclosure, a laying bin, and I doubt your misting is adequate. An automatic misting system is a wise and I'm my opinion, a requirement of good chameleon husbandry. Please at least utilize the home shower to give her a couple long, gentle, slightly warm showers, a week. They need long durations of falling water to clean their eyes, hydrate, flush their organs and respitory system, and moisten their mucus membranes. Please utilize the caresheets and information we are giving you to either correct your care or find a more appropriate home for your chameleon. This chameleon is heading for death, with the current approaches. Also, find a more qualified vet.

I've already commented on a few of these points others made. I am correcting all of Then. Also the mirror was very , I don't think she saw herself? She wasn't very interested in it and then took it upon herself to turn on the faucet, knock over a soap dispenser, and also topple over folded clothes which she went down with

The fall was cushioned by the clothes

I just want to say kudos for taking the advise and working to correct this stuff. I know it's hard sometimes to put yourself out there to be on blast but it's really in the best interest of your cham.

@Extensionofgreen @Peachypink are right. It's unfortunate that some comments get hostile but it's less about attacking you and more of having a deep love of chameleons. Everyone here truly cares about the species and most likely have experienced a chameleon death and just doesn't want to see that happen to this one. But I'm glad you are taking the various threads into consideration and working on trying to right all of your situations. Though if you don't think you can handle it or feel like your home isn't adequate enough you should look into finding it a better home. But if you are righting your situations you should be fine.
Also someone made a comment on maybe the chameleon not liking it's habitat. And I believe you said you had succulents and fake plants in there? Maybe you should switch the succulents out for a plant with a lot of leaves and branches. Just a thought.

I was definitely not prepared for taking care of a female incest bred chameleon. And it's definitely all on me for not checking the breeder beforehand. If it gets too far maybe I'll give her to a reptile shelter. For now I'll do pretty much whatever I can to give her a good life. I'll see if I can find a plant that's adequate for the cage

It's not your fault. The seller or breeder told you the wrong info. Keep working on making her well, and best of luck!

Thank you. I got her a hornworm while I was out. Do you think she'll eat it? Is there any way I could feed it to her?

umbrella plants are often used. Ficus too but I've read that can be toxic if eaten to much.
Since you have a veiled that will eat greens you need plants that aren't toxic.
If you get plants from a regular store you will want to shower it off for quite some time to get all pesticides off.

Since she has mbd you probably want to put in a netting or some towels near the floor to cushion her just in case she falls.

She will also need a lot of calcium with mbd and possible eggs comming up it will take a heavy toll on her body.

Good luck getting her back to health.

It's up to her. Some will hold and wiggle it a little to entice their cham, but don't hold her if you try. Let her have her space.

 

[Kristen Wilkins]

She should love the hornworm . There great climbers u can just put it on a branch near her . She will probably get excited over it .

 

[alphakenc]

As right now according to her falling picture,she is shedding,she will need heat n moisture by misting ,leave her in the enclosure,so she can finish her shedding completely ,they can get very stress when they shed.

Yes she is shedding. She mostly completely shed the old skin.

 

[phantomchameleon]

the hornworm pooped on my sketchbook

[Nursemaia]

Hornworms poop a lot

 

[alphakenc]

When u see her shedding next time,leave her be,stress will make her worst if she is already sick,the priority is correct all the things that the forum members suggested repeatedly above n from ur other posts if u planning to save this cham asap,take it as ur responsibility since she is ur pet ,her life will be all depending on ur action.

 

[Lizzie The Chameleon]

Hornworms poop a lot

yes just like chams do when they eat them

 

[phantomchameleon]

She's had the worm in her mouth for like 5 minutes now she's just "well what do i do now?"

Leave her be she'll eventually gobble it up. She might just be feeling nervous about it.

 

[phantomchameleon]

She finally swallowed it! This was her first time having a hornworm and definitely wont be the last.
