hey everyone. i'm fairly new to owning a chameleon, i just got him a few days ago, and i have been hand misting him. I just want to know if i am doing it right. i spray all the leaves when i wake up, after i get home from school, and before i go to bed. Reading some things on the forums, i tried to spray my chameleon, but he didn't like it, so i backed off. i haven't seen him drink the water that collects on the leaves, so i'm not really sure if he's drinking. Would it be smarter to get a dripper? i have only heard of one, and the reviews aren't too great. i would be thankful for some advice, thanks.

If you have some cash to spend an automatic mister is the way to go. At first I was hand misting but you can't always be there to do it and you can program the mister how often and how long you want it to go on for.
i will try to save up for a automatic mister, but for now do you think it's fine to hand mist?

I think so if you're home a lot. The key is to just be consistent. A lot of people might not be home a during the day so in that case a mistking would be a necessity. I took a lot of my classes online so i was home most of the time and my girlfriend lives with me, so we were able to handmist with no issue.
ok. i go to school for six hours, so i mist heavily right when i get home and before i leave. my cham looks happy, so i just hope he's getting enough
