Question about the eggs.

[Eyal]

Hi all! My cham is mated and she is showing gravid colorations.
She is about 12 months old and my questions is...

I heard that people doesnt use incubators to veiled chams? Right? Wrong?

My plan is to get her in a egg laying container when she stop eats and begin to wander down in her cage.

After that to put the eggs in the egg container with moistered vermeculite and in rooms temperature cause the temp is stable, its 22-23.
So, is this a good plan? Do i Need a incubator?

I have my veiled eggs in clear plastic shoe boxes with damp vermiculite. I placed them in a safe closet and our home stays 74-76 all the time.

should you put it in the cage?:O i thougt you would pick her up and down a egg laying container so she would be alone and dig her tunnels?

keep the container in the cage if you have room, so she can decide when to lay and not you. my female layed 55 eggs about a month ago and it took her about 24hrs.

And it doesnt disturb her?

Yap i got room, just dont want her to lay her eggs in the citrus pot, where the roots are messed up , so dont want to end up digging out 25 + eggs underneath the roots ^^
i think a can place it ontop of the earth otherwise down beside

i have a 2x2x4 cage lllreptile and i slide my schefflera to the side giving me just enough room for a 15" high egglaying box. when she starts plumping up i throw that box in there and wait;it doesnt disturb her.

i think its less stressing for them to have the box in the cage and are used to seeing it and/or exploring it.

my female is very aggressive and wouldnt like being taken outa her cage and being put in a unfamiliar container till she laid the eggs; i know i wouldnt.
