Chameleon Habitats

[LizZaDoRk18]

My Chamo Turned Some What Blue And He's Still Very Young It Was Pretty Cool (( yes he's my first Chameleon ))

Um yeah any way, I have my chameleon is a glass tank its pretty tall, it has plenty of climbing branches and leaves. I also have a waterfall in the tank. He's still pretty tiny. When should I get him a new habitat?? It should be all screen right??

What kind of chameleon? How old? Yes screen cage, and please get rid of the waterfall, if you search for them on here you will see post after post about what dangerous bacteria breeding grounds they are. What kind of lighting do you have? Supplement schedule? Temps? There are many, many things to consider in keeping chameleons...
