I just had a Mitsio clutch hatch. It was a large clutch of 38 eggs and lost some on the way (went bad). I ended up with 17 hatchling's in the end . Some of the eggs didn't hatch out never developed and some got stuck in the egg. I hope my other clutches in the incubator turn out better. My eggs didn't mass hatch it was like 2 or 3 a week.

I have bred Nosy Be primarily. Clutch size varied from eleven to thirty one. But I'd say its typically around twenty. I space eggs no less than one inch (2.5 cm) apart and several generally hatch together, and then the rest over about two weeks.

To some extent the size of the clutch is related to the temperature you keep the chameleon at and the amount of food she is given when the egg follicles are maturing, IMHO.

26 seems to be my average size clutch
