I always let mine finish filling the hole back in and allow her to go back up to the branches and then its okay to dig them up.

As Lynda said, yes let her finish covering the eggs up. It is a female chameleons instinct to do this and if the eggs are removed to soon, before she has finished covering them up, this will cause her great stress and she will repeatedly try to finish the job off, even when she can not do this.
