I recently added a few more plants to give some more hides for my boys. I’m comfortable with Stick’s enclosure (on the right) but wondering if I overplanted Frank’s (on the left) or both?
Stick is a panther and Frank is a veiled, both adults now. I’m guessing it’s because of the newness of the change (did this all yesterday!) but Frank seems timid with his. He’s always seemed to prefer being on that top middle area without much hiding. I don’t think he’s really ever hidden at all since I’ve had him (March of this year). I’m going to give it a few days of adjustment but if he doesn’t venture down into the plants, should I try removing a couple? Even when the cage was a lot more branchy and less planty, he just always seems to want to hang out on that top center perch. He only goes down to the bottom branch in the corner when he wants to sleep and the past week (before and after new plants) he’s been just sleeping on the one end of the same top perch. Thoughts?
Husbandry info is in my other thread (now with updated MistKing setup). UVI and basking temps are on point (3 and ~85F). I am going to purchase a Herpstat this week to have that soon as well but for now I’m using a Solarmeter 6.5R and a highly-rated thermogun. Ambient temps and humidity seem fine.
Thanks for checking this out for me! I’d love any constructive criticism!

Can still see your chams, should be good 
. And be patient. I’m currently in production for another one. I used to build my own bed for what it cost me and materials. It’s cheaper to go with Dale.
