Building A New Cage Help!!!

[popwell89]

I have designed a new cage and will start piecing it all together shortly. Before i start i am trying to price everything out and decide how im going to set it up. I need to know what plants are best/safe in the cage with my veiled chameleon. I know to get pesticide free ones and to wash them before putting them in the cage. I just want to know names and see pictures of safe plants that are going to hold up to my 1 year 5 month old chameleon.

-Thank you for reading

Here is a link to the region in the forums with the plants. Read carefully because a couple are not suitable. https://www.chameleonforums.com/plants/

I looked at the plant refrences on this website and it has the same things. I just didnt know if anyone used any other plants. You always hear of Ficus and pathos. Which i like the pathos and the ficus my only concern and maybe you guys have the experience (i do not) with the ficus trees. They seem to not be sturdy. I feel like i need a tree with longer branches with limbs with more diameter. I dont know. I may get a couple small ficus and then have a fake tree in the center of my cage that i know has plenty of limbs that wont lay over when Rex climbs on them.

Does anyone know the type of carving foam that is used to make backgrounds in cages?
