Climbing tree?

[xxaprilrose]

I’ve seen these on multiple Cham breeder instagrams where they have a wood tree for chams to climb (outside of the enclosure) and it’s just the branches, no leaves or anything. Anyone know where I can buy something like that? I’m looking for a fairly tall branch tree to put my Cham on when he’s out of his enclosure because my new 4 month old is just always begging to come out but I got nowhere to put him and he’s super fast so I can’t hold him long lol but I prefer no real plants. Honestly I only do real plants in my reptiles enclosures, not in my house.

you could look outside for a bluberry bush/tree I love those and maybe get a bunch of sticks and stick them in a pot filled with dirt?

I've seen this also... It's usually a large manzanita tree/branch. I think they can be fairly expensive.

For me I get mine from the desert they are dead trees from wild fires in the past. Luckily the desert is only a couple miles from me . I have the option to clean and cut whatever is needed for making a perch.

thanks everyone! good ideas. i think this spring/summer I will try and go out and look for one. Right now its in the dead of winter and I would never be able to find one lol but hopefully i can find some cool ones to make into a tree for my lil guys

For someone normally over-concerned about stress, why would you want to put him in a place he cannot hide and feel secure?

First I've heard of this. Seems counterintuitive... "Give them plenty of places to hide," "Pretend you can't see them,"

OMG, your poor house!

Whether real or not, I'd still look for something with foliage. Ficus Benjamina? Philodendron?
When my guy is out, he (usually) alternates between the highest (unprotected) perch, and hiding in a hanging spider plant a couple of feet below. He'll hang/hide in that spider plant for hours on end.

Whatever you find, placing it near a window they can look out should help keep them (and their attention) on what's out the window rather than a lot of running around.
