chamie's cage and a pic of her :)

just wanted to see what yall thought about my chameleons set up and if i need to add or take anything out as she is my first chameleon and has already grown double or triple in size she doesnt show her colors really i did make her mad one day trying to get her out and she showed lots of colors lol but i dont like stressing her out so i leave her be most of the time. 1st pic is when i first got her she was little now not so much lol. My biggest worry is her falling by climbing around on everything.

nice little set up you have and cute little girl too. I'd add a few exo terra bio vines in there so she has some highways to run around on . I'd also put her uvb light long ways on the cage so she gets more of the light in their. other then that good job i think those cages are good when you putting in a nesting box for when she lays eggs

She is a cute little girl! The one thing I don't see is an uvb light, do you have one? You should have some sort of basking light and a long tube linear uvb light, like a reptisun 5.0.

i use the powersun 150 watt. it is 2 in one i use it for my iguana as well and ya i think i might add some more vines and stuff for her. I also let crickets loose in there for her to eat and have a bowl for worms and greens. even though i have the powersun and its a uva/uvb bulb in one should i add another light or some sort to the other side? figured the other side could be a get away from the heat side if she wanted.

Without getting into to much specifics, chameleons are really sensitive to light and uvb rays. Yes I would get rid of that Power sun and get a regular 60watt(adjust wattage to your needs) household bulb for the basking area and a linear tube reptisun 5.0 bulb that stretches the width of your cage.
