Can't help you with an outside enclosure. In NH we're lucky to get a couple mos of nice weather for us to go out, let alone our chams. lol.
As far as keeping a male and female together, there is a way to do it. You need to provide plenty of space, cover, as well as different basking areas etc. However, you have to keep in mind that the male may still try to seek out the female for mating. This can cause her alot of undue stress which can then lead to other health issues. It can be a very difficult process and one that has to be monitored closely by someone who is familiar with the reg behavior of both chams. So that as soon as something is noticed, it can be rectified. If you have the time to monitor them continually for the first couple of mos and know their behavior well, then it might be doable. It's very time consuming and can be very stressful for the female though, so think carefully prior to attempting it. It would probably be much more appropriate to just build 2 seperate enclosures.
