Veiled chameleons lay clutches of 30 to 60 oval eggs (exceptionally, up to 80 or more for very large females) every 90 to 120 days. These eggs, which upon laying are 1 to 1.5 grams in weight and a little more than half an inch in length, begin developing in females before the females are 1 month old.Female veiled chameleons retain sperm and may produce a second clutch 90 to 120 days after oviposition, even if not mated again.ncubation. We use shoebox-size, disposable food storage containers to incubate veiled chameleon eggs. No ventilation holes are added and the boxes are covered. Both vermiculite and perlite are suitable incubation media, but we prefer perlite mixed with tepid water in a ratio of 150 grams perlite to 120 grams water.
