Runny Poo??

[mychamsrswellerthanurs]

Hello, I'm sorta new in the chameleon ownership world. I adopted two veiled chameleons about four months ago, a male named Samuel Helmetpants, and a female named Kiwi Green. They were roommates up until about a week or two ago when I realized she was sexually mature and they should probably be separated. She just got her orange/violet womanhood spots. She's looking rather plump and lethargic, I set up a laying bin for her thinking maybe she needs to lay some eggies. But she just released some kind of runny poo/ urine (I'm still not hip on the chameleon lingo) but now she's much more active. She did just drink a bunch of water? Anything would really help at this point. :/

Even if they didn't mate, she can still lay infertile eggs. Regardless of whether they are fertile or not, she would need the laying bin in place. On occasion they may have a runny poop. What you want to watch for is if it keeps staying runny.

Thank you!! I have a nice little bin set up, she does seem to feel a little better. Any tips on how to get her to use it?? I feel like she wont understand what is going on right away lol

Give her privacy. She knows what it is and she'll know how to use it lol how do you have it set up?

I can take pictures of it when I get home, but It's a square bin about 10' deep and just about 1sq foot. Half eco earth peat moss and half sand.
