My list says: only the fruits of the Monstera deliciosa are toxic.

I think I'll not risk this one without consulting a few more lists!

Absolutely gorgeous Cham you have there! Cage looks really great, looks like you did proper research ahead of getting the resident. Good job!

Very beautiful chameleon you have there! I never saw the thread before but you did a great job on the enclousre also, although we favor screen cages here in the US versus glass.

Very nice cage, just a few concerns.

The substrate might be hard to keep clean with all the moisture.

Since it seems like you will have high humidity, which is good, make sure you also have good air flow/movement, as standing humidity is bad.

Other than that, very nice cage and looks good.

Good looking cage! The lights and the misters look as if a panther could touch them if they stretched out a tried. If that is the case I would move the climbing perches out a bit. I would keep an eye on your panther as well to see if there is any problems with the air circulation as chameleon really respond to good air quality if your panther does OK your good. About the plants I would consult the forums local plant expert DGray and see it he can help.

Whats up Michael welcome to the chameleon forums,if you like chameleons this is the place to be.I ve been building custom chameleon enclosures for about 13 years and i can see you have fine woodworking skills,the construction looks very good and solid but you should change those sliding glass doors for wooden screen doors=most chameleon species are very territorial by nature including furcifer pardalis in most cases just a simple mirror or glass reflection can trigger an aggressive territorial reaction causing very high stress levels to your chameleon also a chameleon enclosure demands very high levels of air circulation.You could reuse the glass doors and build a glass tray at the bottom of your enclosure to protect the bottom wood panels from water damage(rotting wood)one last thing drill some holes through the glass tray and the bottom of your enclosure to drain all excess water out of your enclosure and into a plastic container this will prevent(molds and bacterias).Make those small changes and you will have a very impressive enclosure design specifically for CHAMELEONS.
