Galvanized Screening vs Steel

[ParabuthusKing]

Hello all,

I am planning on building some nice outdoor enclosures for my Panther chameleons to get them in peak condition for breeding this year. I was planning on using standard galvanized screening with a wooden frame, but after thinking about it, I had a concern that the galvanized tin may cause a problem with toxicity for the chameleons if they are licking it or catching prey items crawling on the sides of the enclosures. Does anybody have any recommendation on this one way or another? Thanks for any advice or assistance you can provide on the subject

You can get large rolls of aluminum screening for fairly cheap at a home improvement store. Thats what i use. It's lightweight, easy to manage, and cut..

Thanks! I will look into aluminum, as this would be a great material for its resistance to rust as well as lack of toxicity
