These photos are over a year old and the free ranges have changed greatly since they were taken. They give you the general idea though.

Very impressive solid snake. (btw I like to pretend ur the real solid). I like the complexity of ur free range. Looks like a cham could spens hours tearing around it like.... Molasses. And still not see everything.
Same with urs carol! thats wat I'm kinda gout for! Several heavily forested areas with connectors so he can roam everywhere!
Loving it guys! And girls!

Thanks, It is an ever evolving thing. He doesnt spend much time in it now, as the weather has been nice, and I keep him outside as much as possible.
As my guy grew (he has FR since he was 4ish mo, almost 9mo now) I noticed he does not spend as much time in the "foresty" areas.
He likes the more open branches and such.
The pothos up top gets hit with 2 MK nozzles, creating rain underneath. The palor palm catches the water, and "funnels" it into the bin underneath.
(btw, I am Solid Snake)

That is a terrificallly ploted free.range! I love it. I planted a weeping fig outside in my 100% pesticide chemical free yard for his out door. But I live in Washington so outside time is limited
I do wat I can. I like the fig because It doesn't have any branches until 3'. It's about 5.5 total height. It's very thick up top he loves it. But for an indoor I have a large scheffera I move depending on where I'm at. His lights are on a stand that are mobile aswell. He's about 3-4 months old so Its time to go big!. (never knew solids liked Chameleons.. figured he'd be to busy for that

Solid Snake is old now, and needs to relax.
Chameleons help him do so...

My mind is blown and have so many questions. I got my Chams about 3-4 months ago. I'd like to have a FR for them but i'm afraid I wouldn't be able to give them the right humidity, they'd fall, someone would step on them, or something silly. How do you guys feed them? Do you bring them to a certain area? Let the crickets loose in your house? How do you make sure they stay out of stuff there not supposed too? It's something I don't think I would do unless I had a closed off room and some sort of misting thing but it would have to be were it wouldn't make stuff mold? My mind is going wild right now. I'm both very intrigued and confused. Someone PM me or post on here? Sorry to take up some of the limelight on this post i'm just very very curious.

No actually I don't... Because its at your house... Wanna be best friends?
For YOSHI AND DAREDEVIL Start a new thread u will get a much better response rate.
Quick half ass answeres. Set up a humidifier near it. Crickets can be fed from a cup jar or some milk jug contraption u can come up with. Or as solid here does with his free ranges set up a mister to shoot It everyone in awhile.

Here are my opinions/thoughts:
Free ranging is not for everyone, or every chameleon.
I live near the coast, and the ambient RH stays pretty high most of the time, high enough for a panther at least.
Creating a proper temperature gradient(something I see as one of the most important things to do with husbandry) can be tricky when you are dealing with a whole room. For the most part, I do find it easier to accomplish in the room though, compared to a 2x2x4 screen cage.
A closed off room is, IMO, a must. Especially if there are other pets (dogs/cats ect) and kids running around the house.
I hand feed almost everything. I have come to consider this a negative thing. It has made my chameleon lazy IMO ;/ I have tried bin feeding, and he does not like it. I also see bin feeding as the same as hand feeding.
It does have pluses.
I feel it has made the chameleon more personable, and not as skiddish about people, as he is used to me being in the room with him.
My FR takes up about 8'x8'x8' so he does have a decent amount of room to explore, compared to a 2x2x4.
The water issue is, well, an issue. Its not to hard to engineer a solution, but it can be tricky.
