Substrate

[ChameleonNerd]

i'm not really a new chameleon owner, however, i do not like the substrate i have in my chameleon's enclosure as of now. it is coconut fiber. does anybody have recommendations?

You don't actually need substrate on the bottom and it's been known to either be a breeding ground for bacteria if it always stays damp or can cause impactions if your cham accidentally (or purposely) ingests some while trying to get a cricket. Most people don't use anything at all in the bottom of their cages. Easy to clean that way!

you dont need that crap .. but it is cool when mushrooms grow out of it .. chams have been reported eating them
