We just had a single female rhampholean uluguruensis lay 11 fertile eggs. Has anyone else seen this large clutch size in any other Rhampholean?
thank you for your time.

No he did get the species name correct although he misspelt the genus name. the correct spelling is Rhampholeon uluguruensis. I witnessed copulation with one of my pairs but had to leave shortly afterwards on vacation which i am still on. The fellow who is taking care of my chameleons hasn't noticed eggs but he hasn't rooted around for them either. Last time i spoke with him he hadn't seen any neonates either but i'm thinking it should be soon so we'll see. Let me know how you're eggs do!
