I am using the Gorilla glue brand. I actually used it to attach Christmas lights to my brick home so if it can’t hold a plastic sheet to plastic I’ll be shocked.

I just started using hot glue on coroplast boards and love it! Doesn’t move unless you want it to and it comes off clean.

How does anyone get their chameleon to trust them after a vet visit?

I get these fallen but healthy birch branches at my kids’ school. They’re great for holding water droplets without rotting and the little bumps give great traction.

Everyone knows veiled chameleons are the best. OK now that we got that debate out of the way and everyone is in unequivocal agreement, I hope your baby feels better after his shots and much needed hydration. He is such a sweet little dude.

Also I hate hornworms. They’re so disgusting and I wash them before I feed them because they grow in a nasty poop filled cup. I empty their poops every day and it’s always stomach turning. At least with bug burger it doesn’t smell as bad but still.

I am all about horn worms for hydration. I’m willing to bet my veiled Tony hasnt drank any water since I got him last year. He gets a horn worm once a week and I think that and misting is enough to hydrate him. Compared to Yemen he’s doing pretty well.

I wondered that too, if they still find a favorite spot and just hang there all day. Maybe they pace around when they’re looking for a mate?

There is so much planning and care that went into that enclosure and I can tell it’s all for love of your animals. God bless you and your sweet ones

Do you mean you can’t fit them in the living room? Or you don’t think they would look as good?

Absolutely. You can make scaffolding out of branches. Stand a 40” branch up straight in each of the 4 corners and then zip tie branches between those to make scaffolding. Works great and looks great. I use birch branches because they’re hard wood with good bark. Don’t use any green...

I see what you mean but listen, just cut 24” x 48” coroplast sheets and hot glue them on the sides against the wall. It holds in humidity and keeps any speck of water from getting on drywall. And it looks great

Hey I noticed you’re in Jersey. I’m in Philly. If you need any help I’m close by and would be glad to lend a hand. And if for any reason you want to adopt one of them out, I’m here for that too.

You can get two XL Reptibreeze enclosures for $200.00 delivered to your door. Place them side by side like I did and put a coroplast (plastic cardboard) sheet in between them. Then use your glass enclosure for a single smaller species of cham when you’re ready. Emphasis added on when you...

Oh because I’m sure once you make a scratch like that it’s all you see!

When I had a plexi glass fish tank it got so many scratches and got hazy. Probably not a factor at all for reptile enclosures

I love the look of that acrylic enclosure but I wonder how hard it is to keep that acrylic spot free or free of scratches. I’m sure RO or distilled water helps keep mineral spots to a minimum. Maybe some vinegar water on a soft cloth once in a while?

Oh wow that’s really interesting! So you open the two front doors and blow a fan in there during the day to dry it out?

Listen to Beman and you will have a happy and healthy chameleon. We all went through what you’re going through. I know you can do it!

Very good point. If they are never down in the bottom 1/4 of the enclosure it doesn’t really matter!
