Ok bout some live plants for the chams cage and was wondering if this soil will be good to use. It says organic choice but has bone meal as phosphorus supplement. I was gonna repot the plants into lil bigger pots and put this ontop

And here are the plants an Umbrella tree (shefflera arboricola) and a Pilea plant. Both are on the cham safe list from FL Chameleon site. And also have a small Drecenia plant at home already

It should be fine. Main thing is to cover the soil with large enough rocks that they cannot injest or move. Some chameleons will move the rocks aside to eat the dirt for whatever reason.
 
No I would not recommend using that. It isn't recommended for use as just straight soil for potted plants.

I would find organic topsoil that has no fertilizer. I think Earthgro Topsoil is the brand I use and it can be found at some Home Depots and Walmarts.

Ok thank you found it. Gonna switch the Pilea plant for a small Pothos instead so I can get some vine action going in there too.

I guess I should have read the label better! Bottom line is though, cover the soil so they cannot get to it.
