Hello there my name is Brian. Let me tell you a little about me first before I get into my new Chameleon. I am 26 years old and have been keeping reptiles since a young age. I usually keep beardies, leopard geckos, etc. I've breed a few of mine in the past. I raise crickets, dubias, and always keep mealworms on hand. Also I keep lots of veggies and stuff for my beardies. I recently just got a Veiled Chameleon a few days ago. He seems to be doing fine in his new home that I have set up for him. I am currently using a Reptibreeze for him, UVB reptisun and a daylight blue bulb. I'm home all the time currently because of school so I am able to mist cage and check temps regularly. I do have a few questions about some stuff though that I will list here and hopefully get some insightful useful information from some fellow members. I have attached some pics of my current setup. Today I will be adding a drip system and making a fogger in the next few days. Hopefully can add a live plant today to. Also will be looking for some wood and more leaves and vines for hiding.

- What plants are best and nontoxic for my veiled? looking for some color and green, probably will be by home depot today.
-How do i wash and sanitize the plant? I know I need to use nonfertilized soil
-Lighting for the plant?
-Any changes to lighting?
-Changes to decorations?

Welcome to the forums and congrats on your first chameleon. I keep veileds and they are awesome chameleons and show allot of personality. I have a blog that should answer your questions linked below. I'm looking forward to seeing your little man grow up here on the forums.
