getting a veiled chameleon

[lainezor]

Hey guys I am getting a male turquoise sunburst veiled chameleon and I wondered if there is anything I need to do, enclosure wise differently than my panther chameleon. I am 100% sure my panther setup is perfect, I obsessed over every little detail. He has large pothos plants, a fake ivy plant wrapped around jungle vine, linear reptisun UVB 5.0, incandescent light bulb for basking and homemade drip system. All this will be in a XL reptibreeze cage with a home made drainage system. Anything I am missing or should worry about with veilds? I know they might eat my plants which is fine.

Veileds just seem to like it a bit hotter than panthers do, so you may want to watch yours and check how often he's basking/how warm the basking area is. Otherwise, care is super similar, so you should be good
