Charlies Free Range enclosure

[djinn5454]

This is my submission to the open air enclosure group.

Charlie is much happier and hurts herself much less often since I opened the side.
She *loves* the paracord vines I bought, then made. Very cheap, very meditative art project.
She was super hesitant about zip ties at first and broke a bunch of vines trying to climb them when the plants were new but everything is hearty enough to hold her weight now.
Tried automatic watering, easier to just use a spray bottle 2x-3x a day. she just comes to the water and lets me mist her open mouth.
had a "little dripper" but it cracked so I took the spigot off and jammed it in a milk jug, works perfect for water between waterings.
I don't let food loose (except black flies which I can't control), I just feed her from a pair of hemostats.

You have got the beginings of a great chameleon Free Range. I would consider adding a couple large trees outside the enclosure with some branches. That should make things more interesting for Charlie along with what you have got. As well you should consider putting some UVA and UVB lighting over the Free Range, I think some type of tube lighting from a contemporary reptile lighting speciallist would work. Keep working on the Free Range.

What happened to Charlies eye. Charlies eye needs to be flushed of have a vet look at the swelling. That looks to be an issues.

Is that a bug zapper? or worse a UVC sanitizer?

Over all looks good. My crew would want more window looking out vines.

Uhh charlie has some edema starting, its why the eyes and the throat look like that.
