Rate my parson chameleon set up

[Ayden]

Please if there's any advice or tips for my set up and caring for a new wild caught orange eye parsons chameleon, it will be appreciated

I would add some live foliage like pothos, I think it would help your enclosure look fuller(if that's a word XD)

 

[Alastair&Anna]

for example, in the red circles a vining plant like pothos that could take over the cage, and then a bushier plant where I have the green and red

It is quite bare. Wild caught huh.... I hope they already ran it through parasite treatment.

@Kaizen can you give them some feedback

HORIZONTAL branches are what your chameleon will use to access the space in his/her enclosure. Tons of live plants are recommended. Are you in the US or Canada?

Canada

Canada

So, he’s coming from Edgar. His chameleons generally come in in very good shape and very clean, but getting a fecal done for any w/c is important. So please do that. But talk to your vet and us before subjecting a new import to harsh meds right away.

Will do, also I have a rain system In his tank that is feed with a 5 gallon bucket and I was planing to dilute Pedialyte with water in his rain system

I’d recommend against pedialyte, or other similar measures, unless he comes in rough. Again, these chams come in in really good condition, so the best thing you can do is hydrate, get him eating, drinking and pooping, and hydrate.

Check your pm

It looks much better now! I think some pothos would also add to the vibe and provide coverage

 

[Ayden]

I'm also thinking about adding a small curtain on the left door to help with the transition into his new environment

Did you already received your parsons?

 

[Action Jackson]

Any pictures of your new Parson’s?

 

[suprdude]

Very very nice setup. How did you do that fern background? I want to do that. Are they real plants?
