Preparing for my first chameleon, tips appreciated

And if things just don't work out, I can always put this little guy in the enclosure :LOL:

I cannot remember where I got him, but I just found him this morning while packing for my trip today. It's a sign!!

He will be the mascot of this enclosure.
I shall name him Justice.

It's hard to see the vine, but it coils through the hibiscus and goes up to the basking area.

I ran the mist the entire time I was setting it up to make sure that drain system works and I'm very very pleased with the results. I am so glad I thought of that.

There's a layer of shelf liner underneath the enclosure, on top of the shelf, and a layer inside the enclosure on top of the layer underneath it. Drains perfectly

Great idea! I am definitely going to set up my drainage system based off this. Are you getting much over spray out of the screen sides? It doesn't appear so in the pictures.

Little to none, it's angled pretty perfectly for now, until chameleon tampering. There are so many leaves to catch it as well, but I even ran it with nothing inside last night with no mist through the sides.

The shelf liner was $5 at Shopko, which I am sure is regional, but I have to imagine Walmart would be similar.

We moved into a different house this past weekend and picked up a big roll of shelf liner. :) It's been wonderful following this thread, can't wait to see your new Cham!

Right now it just shows 8/4. It gives the option to log in and view more info, but it still has my old address registered and keeps saying no expected deliveries.

I added my new address but it's still showing to my old one, and I'm still out of town and don't want to deal with it

I'm back home now :) I left at 6am this morning.
Last update was he departed Milwaukee about two hours ago, it sounds like that flight may have been delayed.

Now I play the waiting game.
I'm super tired and slightly sunburnt waiting for ups to show up
