I don’t think it’s worth the risk or gamble. A couple more dollars spent on live plants or a extensive vet bill from impaction.

Not worth it IMO. Real plants give no chance of impaction, boost humidity, and look better. If it’s just a fake vine with no leaves, as long as it’s not rubber it should be fine.

I wouldn’t risk it, and you wouldn’t save much anyway.

Personally, fake plants have a place in quarantine enclosures where frequent sterilization methods are employed. Real leaves don’t stand up well to strong chemicals or steam. Other than that, love plants bring so much more to the table, so to speak.

In all honesty, a skilled keeper who puts in the work can most certainly make fake plants work. But unless you have a good reason for taking this approach, why bother?

When we first set up our enclosure the fake silk plants were just used as fillers to make sure the chameleon had enough coverage. They held up until we spotted 4 foot long pothos. Then swapped out the fake stuff. Real plants are the way to go especially to help keep the humidity at the levels we needed.
