2-3 questions about humidity-probe etc

[takisxx]

Hello everyone.i have 6 months old male veiled cham.I live in greece and the humidity here is up to 70-80 from the morning till night.should i mist him(i mean its must?)or no? For watter i have a driper.the other question is about temp probe. Probe is under the branch of hes basking spot.when i mist,water goes to it so humidity goes to 100%. How can i dont mist it?i mean its so difficult cuz when i spray water goes everywhere.
Ps i will buy dehumidifier soon.

Yassou! You’ll still need to provide drinking water, either through misting or a dripper. Does your chameleon seem to prefer one over the other? That is pretty high daytime humidity for a veiled. Just make sure you have plenty of ventilation for him to help counter the humidity level and keep your basking temps no higher than 26c.

Hi.at my home and enclosure 2...

You mean humidity probe right ? You have solid enclosure is that right

yeah i mean humidity-temp probe,thats my enclosure

 

[takisxx]

Thats the temp-humidity probe spot.

So when i mist the enclosure i mist the temp-humidity probe with it.so humidity goes to 100% and thats unreal... Thats why i ask about probes placement

Try to place the probe where it won’t get wet. Hard to do, but not impossible.

Is the nighttime humidity even higher? 80-100%?

If i move the probe the temperature will not be correct.anyway i try it

yes at night goes 90-100

Oh...I didn’t realize it measures both temp and humidity. Maybe get a separate hygrometer and put in a dryer area.
