Combining the 2 into 1 larger enclosure is pretty clever... simple yet clever...

^THIS^ Just be sure to clean out the paper towels REGULARLY (daily at a minimum)

You put wet paper towels on the bottom?

they don't need to be wet when you put them in there if your misting properly the mist will get it wet and that way the papertowels can catch the drainage.

Do you have more pictures of your enclosure? I like the brick looking back drop and was curious if you had any better images or construction pics you'd be willing to share. (sorry, I didn't mean to thread jack the OP)

No the misting sessions sill make the paper wet

but where should i let it lay eggs?

You make a laying bin which will be a container on the bottom. However I would recommend watching the female for when she is trying to dig at the bottom and then move her into a large trashcan ready for eggs. There is multiple posts on here about this topic so take a look at them.

What plant should i put in the cage, prob want something edible. Also should i give me chameleon fruits, like kiwi or banana?

I believe there is a list on here of the plants that can be put in with them. For plants you can feed them specifically usually it is stuff like collard greens. I believe in the nutrition section there is also information on this.

If you get a boy you don't need to worry about eggs
