Unique Documentation of the Egg Laying Process in Furcifer lateralis by Asc Trittau

After several weeks of gravidity, female chameleons descend to the ground to deposit their eggs, leaving them alone for the months required for incubation. During this time, the females become quite heavy and less agile, making them vulnerable. Consequently, this process typically occurs in a secretive and rapid manner. Observations of females laying eggs are rare in the wild and even in captivity, where careful monitoring of chameleon behavior is more common. While egg-laying behavior is documented, it is not frequently observed.

In a remarkable effort, Asc Trittau has documented the egg-laying process of the carpet chameleon, presenting unique video footage and exceptional photos. These visuals are self-explanatory and offer valuable insight into this fascinating behavior. Enjoy the documentation as it showcases the intricacies of chameleon reproduction.
