They're just cloths, since before the pet store gave me wood chips for the bottom, and I used that, but it kept getting in his mouth. I chose cloth instead just recently, to avoid that and hopefully do better for him. I don't have a mister because I was told it was highly, highly unnecessary...
Thank you! I really appreciate this. The strange thing is that he only does this when I'm not inside the cage. When I have my hands inside, he doesn't seem to mind, and he will easily eat from my hand if it's something he really does like. I'm just trying to make him happier at this point.
They're like children, I think. My mom tells me that she felt a lot of the same things that I describe- the anger and the lack of patience and everything! Like I mentioned before, I'm just worried about the room and how it might hurt him. I don't even have any plants. I don't want him trying to...
I just don't know how chameleon-friendly the place is. Although, yes, they're used to tough terrain, I have about a ten foot drop I'm worried I could accidentally scare him off of. He avoids me like the plague and if I let him out, I just feel he has to, you know. Not hate me as much. You feel...

This is usually what I use to gauge what not to give him. My little boy loves strawberries a lot, but I stopped giving him bits when he hissed at me if I didn't give him any, haha. He also...
