This is why I wear a suit everywhere I go. Don't laugh, it's fashionable. If it's not the water, it's the air that will get you or your cham. That's why my cham only goes out in an environment controlled bubble along with my dog if we're not hermetically sealed in our home. We all also stopped...
Just feed the insects all day and night 24/7 a load of stuff. Takes all the thinking out of it and your Cham should be fine.

Hmmm, maybe I don't get the question but I use a dripper. I place it on top of the screen and it drips through it. I place a shallow container on the bottom/floor where the drops end up. Since I don't mover the dripper around the path is always the same and thus it collects water in said...
I use the fishing line method. Tie the fishing line around the branches end tightly, then knot at the end of the branch and then through the screen lightly knotting it over about an inch of area. It you're careful, no stretch on the screen. Pull too hard and well . . . you know.
Someone people...
I actually keep them in my Chms old 16" x 16" x 30" from when she was little. It's helped keep them alive much longer for me, I think it's the good air flow.

Also, make sure you're gutloading your insects properly. It's very important! Personally I used https://www.chameleonforums.com/members/sandrachameleon.1614/ blog entries to learn what's good or bad. You can also buy commercial stuff like Cricket Crack if you're super lazy or super pressed for...
If they are punkies wouldn't they have bit you by now? I live in Florida too and I have these tiny little flies around my Chams enclosure all the time. I've pretty much given up on trying to get rid of them. I've tried the cup with apple cider trick and while it did catch/drown many they just...
You're gut-load choice isn't good at all. Fluker's just sucks. Spinach is best avoided (high oxalate food) but you said sometimes. Did it contribute to death? I really don't know. I assume it would in the long run but I'm no expert on these things.
Sorry for your lose. RIP Vincent :(
