I put a timer on when I hand mist , I like 4 min . I have a automatic Mister as well . That gos off 5 times throughout the day 2 -10 min and 3-4min . I just changed it it's getting warm here now . My babie really like there misting I do warm water when I hand mist . They will just sit and enjoy . Not all chameleon like it . Just try misting him see what he think . My hand Mister I can just to a very fine mist and it'll message for probably two minutes before needing to re-pump .

Okay thank you I will do that! And yeah he will walk away if I mist him directly but sometimes he sits and enjoys it but he turns brown sometimes when I mist him to

Less in less out , sounds ok on poo . Add misting even if he does not seem to be drinking they do war of the mist . Think of there climate , misty , foggy , rain . Let's see if @Matt Vanilla Gorilla @Andee ,@kinyonga think . I don't think it's a concern not eating right now .

With all the great advice going around there is just no need for me! One thing that I have noticed though is that the glistening that real outside sunshine adds to water drops on leaves of plants seem to magically make water more attractive to chameleons!

He probably would like a window but for uvb he will not get any through windows. You would need to bring him out side .

The cage needs to dry out at night so if you are misting or using the dripper at night there is no need to.
Is the chameleon eating now?

I haven't seen him eat, and I was reading that they drink at night so I let it drip at night
