    Since my chameleon died.. I have an empty screen cage. It's the equivelant of a 22 gallon tank. What can I use this for?

    I don't think it's really good for anything other than other chameleon's. Just about any other species that I can think of would lose too much humidity in one of those.

    No, they need high ventilation. They need a dripper going so they can recognize their water (standing water = ? to them) and they should be misted a couple times a day, so they don't get too dried out.

    Sometime I'll try another chameleon. Definitely a CBB one, and perhaps a hardier species. (I'm learning not to buy from pet stores!)

    depending on the species they need both high humidity and very good ventilation.. this is what makes them one of the more tricky animals to house in a captive environment this is the reason for using live plants and misting 3-4 times daily it helps keep humidity levels up in a well ventilated enclosure
    I would suggest a veiled for a first chameleon since they are from more arid environments and seem to one of the more hardy species and can be bought from breeders very reasonably priced ($30-$60)

    Wow, I see them priced at over $100.. or maybe I was mistaken. Do they get much larger than Jackson's? I know the Meller's eat like it's going out of style.

    Ah yes.. I've been there before. Gorgeous animals. Now that you've recommended them, I'll probably make them the ones I get my next chameleon from.

    Thanks.
