Foam is one way to go. Natural stone or ceramic tile backsplashes are another way. Probably more expensive, and definitely heavier, but easier & faster to install.

I did this for my bearded dragon enclosure.
I may do something similar in the cham enclosure (but not exactly the same).
Cork is another. Check out the Enclosure Picture Threads in the Enclosures and Supplies forum for more ideas & examples.

Ah okay, is it enclosed somehow?

Yes, it's an enclosure. Basically a wooden (bltic birch) box with sliding plate glass doors in the front.

Okay I’ve seen how some people have an open area with it only being enclosed in a certain area. I was just wondering

That is nice! Great idea, but after spending about a year shopping for tile with my sis, I can see how expensive it could be.

Ah, I wasn't following. Not certain I am now. This is for a beardie, so it's about half open floor, and half occupied by his basking mountain/tower built of bricks, and a cork round. There are several hides in the mountain, but he spends probably 80% of his time basking. I take him out on days he makes stinkies, after he's done it. It's a lot different than cham poop, and can be a real day-changer...

No question. It has to come down to the big picture. Yes, it costs more, but I had it done in a day, whereas cutting, fitting, & gluing foam, covering with mortar, sealing the mortar, painting, and any steps I've forgotten (not to mention dealing with cleanup of all the messes) can take considerably longer.
I chose a more expensive (than some) option, but there are less expensive options (per sq ft) too.
