My New male Henkeli and ?'s

[postskunk]

I've been looking for a male Henkeli for about about 6 months and about a months ago I found a 2 year captive on a chameleon forum, at a great price too, so I immediately snatched him up.

heres a few pics of my handsome new boy

So heres the thing when I first introduced him to my girl he chased her around for about an hour. She seemed kinda responsive but a little reluctant she quacked a few times. So I took him out then a week ago I stuck them back together and they locked up in ten min, even with the lights in the room on and the tv on too. I haven't been home every night but I have seen them locked up a second time as well.

When I put them together the first time I watched them with the Night Vision on my camera and decided to tape a little. it's kinda boring but I decided to throw it up here for fun. Also the reason I separated them was because I could see that she was about to drop eggs.Useful Trick - Night Vision allowed me to see she was gravid plain as day!

My question is can I leave them together or will this stress her out too much. There in an 18x18x36 right now and I'm half way done with a 15x15x60 I'm building for them which will be done by like July. I know that all animals and coupling situations are different from individual to individual so I'm just looking for opinions and personal experiences I don't expect a definite yes or no, all comments and impute are very appreciated complements criticism I like it all

Thanks

She should be fine with the male if it's just the two of them. Keep an eye out for those eggs!

Thanks Mike,
Would it help take the stress of her if I got another female cause the male would have some one else to pay attention too, or could that cause more stress? Also this all depends on if I can track down another female. She dropped the eggs already, I pulled them out on Saterday. there both good this is her forth clutch since Jan 28 I got 2-1 good, 2-1 good, 2-both duds, and this time 2 good. I'm pretty pumped about the night vision showing the eggs. I have some time tonight so I'm going to try it with my satanic girls.

thanks again Mike
