DIY Raindome To small???

[chitzkoy]

I live in a small room condo so I need a way to control the reptirain spray. Mistking is not an option as I live in the Philippines and shipping it will cost a lot and warranty problems. I know I definitely need a dripper because the reptirain has limited timings. Dome diameter is 4 1/2 inches

If the cham drinks the cham drinks. Thats all that matters. Some want the whole caged hosed down, and hides during the rain and come out when its over. Others like to take a shower and wont drink unless they are getting rained on. If your cham is on of the smart ones that "knows where the water is" you can have just that area. Each cham is different. Mine requires 1/4 of the cage to have a sprayer, some times when it goes off he will walk under it and get a drink, other times when it goes off he will walk out of the area because he doesnt want to get wet.

Since you are into diy, you could take one of the 2 nozzles, and place it in a jar with a pinhole at the bottom to make a dripper. So it would "rain" for 1-5 minutes, and then "drip" for 10-15min afterwards.

Thank you! I am testing the cage before he arrives in 4 days! I'll just have to observe him on his first week then.

Epic suggestion on that extra nozzle! Now I don't need a big jar for the dripper as the reptirain will partially refill it! If it overflows then more rain for my Cham lol

I think it would work for drinking purposes however I don't think it would bring up the humidity like one that sprayed the whole enclosure.

Humidity is relatively high here in the Philippines. After each spray it spikes to 85-90% then goes to a stable 65-70% the whole day. It only drops below 60% if I turn on the AC at night. I also plan to spray the whole cage before and after my work.
