She is a veiled. I have a lay box for her, and the incubator is ready... they bred on the 28th... so what do I watch for now to know when she will be ready to lay??

Keep feeding her, but literally... don't "watch" her at all. Visual contact from her to you should be cut of after the first couple weeks. Put food in while shes sleeping (bowls of crickets) or silkworms on branches, so that she can still eat, but not see you. She might not lay if you are watching.

She knows what to do. If your laying area is inadequate, then you may have to move her to a new location. My method is described here: http://www.chameleonforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1547
I usually move min into the laying bin at the first sign of diggin in plant pots or pacing the lower regions of the cage.

This is one way of many, but it has worked for me many many times.

I ways know with mine because she'll be pacing at the bottom of her cage and she looks like shes going to pop. normally you'll see the eggs in her, she'll be all lumpy.
