For branches, you can buy them online, but it’s cheaper and quicker to harvest some from pesticide free areas. Safe trees include oak, maple, birch, manzanita, crepe myrtle, any hardwood/non-toxic and non-sap producing trees. Scrub and wash really well with Dawn dish soap and hot water, then...

You need to get 1/4” crickets, medium large ones are far too big. Like I said in your other thread, you’ll feed him as many gutloaded and properly supplemented 1/4” crickets as he can eat two times a day right now

Kind of all of it; lighting, supplements, cage, cage decor, and proper temps and and humidity levels

You have a male veiled, I’m not good with ages, so hopefully someone else can chime in on that. If he is around 3 months, he needs 1/4” or smaller feeders. You’ll feed him as much as he’ll eat two times a day. The link I posted in your other thread has all of the latest and accurate info

Do you prefer me to keep everything on Amazon or reptile supply websites or either/both?

Welcome on here! Sadly, everything is incorrect in his cage (including his cage) and it needs to be replaced ASAP, as all of it can cause serious health issues. Read through every module in this link, as it has the most up to date and accurate chameleon care. I’ll start linking correct things to...

Give me some time, and I can go over your husbandry and add helpful links and care images. Is she moving/can she grip a branch/anything like that?

This is a good one (you might have to play around with the wattage, I’d start at 40 or 60 watt), as plain incandescent bulbs aren’t available in some states at hardware stores anymore: https://exo-terra.com/products/lighting/heat-lamps/daytime-heat-lamp-60w/ Also, I’d think about replacing the...

You’re doing a GREAT job!! I’ve just got a few tweaks and info for you: I’ve attached a gutload chart below in case you’re not sure what to feed the crickets. Also, avoid getting crickets from places like Petsmart, Petco, Pet Supplies Plus, etc (any big chain pet store), as they have higher...

As long as there is enough airflow in and out of the closet so there is constant fresh air it should be fine. You can purchase her adult cage now no problem! You’ll just have to replace her branches to ones with bigger diameters as she grows
