plants??

[em94237]

I recently bought some more plants (an umbrella plant, some more pothos (he absolutely loves it lol) and a peperomia) for my veiled chameleon yoda's new cage (I'm building it today?‍) but they're still tiny. So I was wondering if I should just go ahead and place them in the cage with him and chance him eating them ir wait until they get a bit bigger?

If he's anything like mine, the plants won't stand a chance ? The fresh green baby growth is my girl's favorite part, so the plants never get the opportunity to grow!

Is there anything specific I need to do before I put the plant in? I got a nice umbrella plant from a local nursery. There's no fertilizer in the dirt.

You’ll want to re-pot it in a different kind of dirt to be safe, and top the soil with large river rocks. The rocks will stop him from eating the dirt. Make sure they’re too big to eat! I think some also recommend washing the leaves with soapy water and then rinsing really well. I might be forgetting something...

I use reptisoil but there are other options too. Nice looking plants

They eat dirt as well as plastic plants?

Accidentally, yes. If they miss when they shoot for bugs

Make sure you take out that repti carpet in the enclosure to. It becomes a breeding ground for bacteria. Just leave the bottom bare, makes it easy to just wipe clean when need be.
