Hi! 
Sooooo, yesterday i finally got my baby veiled chameleon!
I just want to put here some information so you can check if i'm doing everything correctly!
So..
The cham is a month old male yemen chameleon.
- I have him in an adult mesh cage sized 76Lx42Wx122H (in centimeters). His cage is on a shelf that is 90cm high.
- On top i have a 100W heat bulb in a 20cm Light Globe (don't know if this is the right word for it) and also a 5.0 UVB lamp 25W.
- I have a automated mister Exo-Terra Monsoon and have it set that it goes for 4 seconds right after the lights go on (at 9 o'clock in the morning) and then again at 3pm again for 4 seconds.
- The Humidity is 70% almost constant in my room.
- The basking spot is 29 degrees C, the ambient temp around 25 degrees C and at the bottom of the cage it's room temperature around 20 degrees C. - - I'm feeding him 10 small roaches per day all coated with pure Calcium without D3 (is that to much or should i give more?). I had him only for 2 days so i didn't give him any vitamins with D3 yet..(how often should i give him vitamins + D3?)
I'm also a bit concerned as hi sleeps during the day. Is that because he's not yet used to the new environment or could there be something else?
And here is a picture of the little guy and his cage
Thank you very much for any information!
