This plant Cham friendly?

[Reptofreak]

Scored this 6ft Alli Ficus today for $24! Is this tree safe for chams? More specifically veiled Cham safe? Looking for personal experience not results from google...
thanks Bill

Yeah I did a google search and read that it is most likely safe, but I like to check here to see what people’s personal experience with a certain plant is. And more specifically what people’s experience is in regards to veiled chameleons. Guess I should have said that in op.

Yes this is maybe my favorite chameleon plant/tree that there is. A little sensitive to improper water/temperature, but nothing crazy. I have three very large alii trees that are part of my cham forest.

Exactly what I was hoping someone would say!

are berries a problem? I know they have some toxicity to humans. I've used that plant as an indoor houseplant, and it hates getting over watered.

I've used it (and killed it ) and it is generally safe. There could be a slight sensitivity to sap if branches break, but nothing major.

I guess it depends on the berries, highly toxic types to veileds I'm sure wouldn't be great.

Yeah it's a pretty picky plant, although mine did well outside on the shady side of our house with tons of rain and humidity.

That is a heck of a steal!!!

And those are killer purple walls.

I added some fake vines to mine to make a cool free range. Worked great for a while until it started dropping leaves...

 

[Decadancin]

Ha, I never noticed this before...

You did ask about being safe for veiled chameleons, what do you think @jannb ? Pretty funny...

Note the placement of the veiled cham fridge magnet...

 

[jannb]

Yes, they are safe. I use one in an outside cage. They do very well outside.

I meant the berries that come after the flower

That would be simply amazing. My husband would never allow that. I can barely get away with keeping bugs. Lol
