Mating happened or no?

Hello everyone, well today i woke up and did my daily routine for the chameleons but as i was going to mist the pygmies i see the male on top of the female moving his butt and legs on her. I think they were breeding but they saw me quickly. I recently (4 days ago) covered their cage as i thought my female was already gravid but i guess not. So i left the room and then came back in and they were off each other. I was sad lol......but then i was about to leave for school and said let me go see avian quickly before i go to school, and the male is on top of the female AGAIN. im hoping for the best and maybe i will have babies soon.

I just checked my pygmys and the male is on top of the female again!

Whether they are mating or not idk but i think they have been doing it for awhile heheh

someone please help me

they are indeed breeding.

Make sure that there are LOTS of hiding places in that viv. the female will need to escape the males advances, or she may become too stressed out and die.

Just try your best to leave them in peace for the next few days, only doing daily routine maintenance and feeding.

Good luck!

Thank you so much...i have there cage covered so they dont see me other then when i feed them which i think will be good for her. I will add more plants today to add privacy. Thank you

Edit-It is 9:42 in the US in the morning and they are on each other again...they love mating!
