Pothos are cheap. I got a $2.50 ficus at Walmart on clearance. Umbrella Trees and bigger, bushier ficus run $10 at Home Depot. Crape Myrtle and Hibiscus run $12 to $15. Wash the leaves well with soap and water. Repotting in organic soil is a good idea. You can pick up a small bag of rocks or...
The towels won't breed bacteria if you use them as you would paper towels, just soaking up all the water and then washing them out afterwards, but paper towels will definitely work for you if that's easier. I started using towels because they're reusable, so it wastes less paper. When I use...
The cup can go anywhere that will gain the notice of the chameleon, placing it so that the chameleon can descend from above is a good idea.

Substrate is messy. Using towels and paper towels on the bottom of the cage is easy. I use towels...
Go with the screen, that's not too big at all for a 3 month old. Cup feeding will allow your chameleon to find its prey easily, although free-roaming crickets will generally all group together in the basking area.
I could swear that there has been a post of this exact same title in the past. 68 - 70 is perfectly fine for chameleons at night, in fact lower temperatures might even be required for a good night's sleep (although I can't say this definitively.) Running a humidifier when temps are low could...
Zoomed makes better lights than Exoterra. That size tank sounds fine for a small baby veiled, but you would have to buy or make a considerably bigger enclosure in a few months. Don't try to grow plants in the bottom of it, that sounds like a mess. The sheer volume of water will just make a muddy...
Thank you. I can't wait to see pictures of your new guy, I think you picked a good combo with Vinyarion and Glorfindel, and more importantly he will be pure ambanja which means you can breed him when he gets older!
My cham is actually 50% ambilobe as well, his sire is Mihoatra Finoana, and that's who gave him a green tint to his body, yellow throat, and red spots. Walter (my cham) eats from my hand, but he does show signs of stress if I take him out unless we just do a transfer to outside. He only gets...
Hey, that's awesome. My chameleon from the Kammers is 7 months old, and his grandfather is Glorfindel as well! I couldn't be happier with his colors, his blue-on-blue side has come out very strong.
