Hello,
I have a panther chameleon who's currently in a glass enclosure, but for some reason the past couple days it's been difficult to keep the humidity up. Normally in the morning/night it's 70% but during the day it drops to 50% and now even low as 40%! I keep a dripper on all throughout the day, have live plants, and even keep a water dish at the bottom so it can evaporate during the day.. and normally I only mist twice a day but now I've been misting almost 3-4 times a day just to keep it from going so low! I think maybe because it's starting to become summer where I live and the temperature is hotter.. but other than that I can't think of a reason why. I make sure to check the temperature and sometimes the basking temperature goes up to 93F but then I adjust it so it goes back down to 90F.
Any ideas or tips? I'm going insane with the constant misting!
Thanks
