I use an epiphytic cactus that runs the length of my greenhouse. Since it runs horizontally over 12 feet it is supported on a chain, which is also used to hang other plants and feeding trays. The cactus vine has a few soft spines but nothing dangerous. It will grow indoors and will bloom if...

I'm a mech engineer. If you have room for it in your enclosure I recommend epiphyitic cacti for climbing. I have one stretching 7 feet up and 15 feet across the greenhouse and its the main thoroughfare for all the animals. No sharp thorns and with the right light it has unbelievable blossoms.

I live in Eden Prairie. I'm new to Chams, but have this Jackson's living in my orchid greenhouse along with some tree frogs and Anoles. What side of town are you on, Dave? John http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRJfVHd6Tx0

I'm new to Chameleons and live in Eden Prairie, MN just outside of Minneapolis. My kids got me a Jacksons for Christmas to add to some Anoles and native Grey Tree Frogs that free range in my greenhouse. All seem to get along fine. In fact, I found an Anole basking on the Chams back yesterday!

He's been with us from flchams from just christmas. About 6 months I guess,

Try a Thunbergia. I don't know about toxicity but it vines onto sticks very fast. May need quite a bit of light though

Yes, that was me. My son's got the jackson's for me this Christmas from FLCham and he arrived a couple of weeks ago. The greenhouse is 9x14 feet, so plenty of room for him to explore. Sometimes it takes 5 minutes to find him. I'd like to try a panther but I thnk he would eat my orchids...

Thanks! I think he is OK. The frogs and Anoles get everywhere, but they can climb walls and ceilings! Heating is warm water radiators running under the fiberglass benches. Humidity is 8 spray nozzles under the benches 4 times a day, 5 minutes each time. They spray down on the floor...

Good points. Thanks. The lights are mounted from the ceiling beams. The Anoles can get at them and enjoy the warmth above the LED lights for the orchids. The Cham would have to climb glass or epoxied cedar to get to them. There are no outlets on the benches, but there are on a table on...

Here is my new Jackson's ( on far right edge of photo, settling in for the night) He has been exploring the greenhouse for a couple of weeks now. We have a separate basking lamp and UV CFL a couple of feet from the makeshift feeding cups. This is an intermediate orchid greenhouse, 70 to...

Thanks. Looks like a Jacksons will be in our future!
