Just got a new repti fogger today in the mail for my cham Yoshi. Anyone else have that?
 
It seems like he doesnt like it.... He is staying away towards the bottom and looking brown as ever when i put it on. Should i give him time to get use to it or take it out?
 
I don't really think any fogger is worth it.

I initially used mine in a container with an overhanging lip to make a sort of rolling fog effect into the top of the cage but my chams didn't seem to like it and it doesn't create enough condensation to provide drinking water for the chams (except for the excessive splashing from the fogging device).
You can read more of my thoughts on this in this thread: https://www.chameleonforums.com/ultra-sonic-fogger-mister-5083/

Like I said there, if you really have a humidity issue, I think a humidifier solution would be far more effective. Try something like the one on the E-Zine: Humidifiers and Chameleon Enclosures.
 
repti fogger

I have two repti foggers. One for my panther cham. , and one for my horned lizard. They work good and help with humidty. They are not a solution for drinking water, as they don't build up condensation fast enough since the mist is so fine. Also Zoo-Med who makes the reptifogger is a good company that will provide great support for their products. Just talk to Rita there. Other solutions work, but don't say the reptifoggers suck because I love mine. Just use distilled water or such to avoid the hard mineral buildup on the plate that produces mist.
 
Suck!... Tygerr's recommendation of a humidifier is what I would go with. If it works for you that is good. Since you already own it you might as well try and make it work
 
I made the same mistake as you except with the Habba Mist by Zoo Med...so don't go that route either. I only have one chameleon. I have decided to get a sprayer like this: http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs...roductId=100637818&N=10000003+90401&D=sprayer

And then a cool mist humidifier. And while exploring an Impact Thrift store today I found an awesome one that is regularly $60-80 for $5 and just ordered a replacement filter. It is antimicrobial too. I love thrift stores...
 
We use a Crane Adorable 1 Gallon Cool Mist Humidifier, in the shape of a FROG for our 6 ft cage. If you take the eyes off a standard PVC pipe fits right in. A couple of elbow joints and its a custom humidifier! Looks ridiculous too!
Jacks up the humidity really nicely, even though we keep the mist away from areas Skeeta likes to frequent.

The nice thing is it's adjustable, so depending on the ambient humidity (like the crazy Canadian weather we have here) you have plenty of choice. Oh yeah, it's really quiet too. Just have to clean it regularly (cage day)
