If I wanted to go away for a weekend, but have no one willing to care for my cham, what are my options? Are there Auto feeders and watering systems that can make this possible? If so what are your recommendations for such products? Our chameleon is approximately 6-7 months old. We've had him for 3. Don't know how old he was when we bought him from petsmart. Thanks in advance.

You can automate everything but feeding.
If you Cham is fed regular they can easily go 3 or 4 days. Maybe give extra bug or two right before you leave.
every thing else just goes on a timer.
The mister will need a big enough tank and drainage. Mist king comes with its own timer, and very reliable.
Mine is automated, other than food, I don’t have to mess with much.
If you use a Fogger it won’t hurt for them to go without for a Few days.
with good set up, you can leave for a few days.
I would still suggest someone peek in on them, but would not need to do anything.

depends how long you will be away if its only a few days you can put the feeders in a feeding dish with gutload, maybe a few extra and it should be okay as long as getting water and light, but yes you should look into having someone you trust coming over to feed him/her and/ or getting a pet-sitter
I would usually have someone here, but they don't do bugs. Lol. I do have someone in mind to ask if everyone was gone. Thanks!
