Hi I think that the 2 sides and top screened is a good idea all my sides are screened but its useless because i have the cages side by side and have to put something between them anyway.

My veileds eat everyday although lots of people feed there chams every 2nd day its up to you. I find that the females eat alot, and some males are pigs and some are not, put all small veildes are heathy eaters.

If your just getting one cham you should have a misting bottle or a pump mister I dont think u need to buy a system, and as for drippers if you are gonna use them a plastic cup with a pin hole will be fine no need to go spend too much on one

I was looking on the KS website they had alot of chams for sell check it out, and check the US classifides.

Hope that helped.

Hi-

Check out my website, you will find the answers to most of your questions, along with link to other sites and the like. It will depend on the chameleon species but most likely you will want an all screen cage. Young chameleons will need food every day, older chameleons can be fed every other day. An auto mister is not a must for one cage a hand mister will be just fine. There is a link to KS on my site and they have a classified page for chameleons in the US. Your best source will be from a breeder, you get what you pay for! Just do your home work before you buy, ask questions before not after, chameleons are unlike any other lizard!

Hope this helps!
