Baby Chameleon housing.

We are going to be setting up tanks like this:

For when our babies hatch out.


My only question is this: How many babies per tank? I know they need to be separated for good at around 2 months of age. But before that can you have 2-3 in each tank?

Thanks in advance for the answers.

from what ive read is you should have about 10 babies per enclosure and they'll slightly vary in size as they hatch, so separate them according to size. If you keeping them in tanks like those, i would recommend keeping things simple and cleaning out the moisture at the end of every day cause those tanks harbor bacteria bigtime.

I stay home most days. My job is to take care of the pets lol. They will be cleaned up and taken care of daily, or as needed (more then once a day)

Thank you for the help though. I thought more then one would be okay, but then I wasnt sure. I am heading out late tonight and picking up 6 10 gallon tanks. Get the collection started.

Its always best to keep them in groups of 2 or 3 in small enclosures so they can find food and they have little or no competition for food.
