Enclosure almost done.

[Squirell]

Enclosure is pretty much set. Going to add a hibiscus and pothos for more foilage. Final picture is of the lil guy. Will be shipped next week!

Looks good, but when he grows up you might want the cage to be a bit taller.

It should be fine until he grows up.

I would recommend adding more vertical and horizontal branches, but it looks good so far!

 

[Squirell]

Thats the plan currently 20x18x12. Gonna upgrade to a 48x24x24 in about 6-7 months when he will be roughtly 9 mo old. This is the Ultimate Set-up from Screameleons. Gonna add some fake vines and/or wooden dowels for paths

 

[Seiryu]

Looks like a good start!

I am thinking that enclosure will be good for more like 1-2 months at the very most. Especially considering it is only 12" tall.

You can get 3 foot tall screen cages for pretty decent prices if you're not looking to build your own.

 

[Squirell]

its 20 tall 18 wide and 12 deep actually. I probably put the dimensions in wrong order lol (been awhile since shop class). Was planning on getting 4x2x2 from DIY cages because they are under $100.

 

[Squirell]

Finished!

Added an umbrella plant and a pothos. oh and a pic of my Mushu!

 

[GabeCastro]

looks good! Your cham will love his new home...

Love the live plants. Your little guy should have plenty of places to hide out at, cool down, and chill out

I actually have to start re-building my adult enclosure this week. Can't wait!

 

[Squirell]

Should have him Wednesday! i still have a 6' of fake vine for more climbing just in case.

 

[GabeCastro]

Nice! Be sure to take lots of pics

Monday I'm buying my cham, hopefully I can get him shipped out on Wednesday so i could have all day thursday to mess around with his set up. I'm excited too. I need to get off the computer I keep buying stuff lol.

 

[Squirell]

Bought cham and ultimate set-up from screameleons. should have had my cham last week but I live in in MN and we had a cold front come through so it was too cold to send him until this week. pics definitely coming with weekly progress of color.

Thats a bummer. My moms boyfriend is from MN, she went to visit his fam in december and it was 0 degree's lol.

Be sure your room is never below 60 degree's when you have your cham. You can use those heaters with the automatic heat levels that constantly stay at a certain degree.

What locale is the panther you're getting? And did you get him/her from screameleons?

I almost got a male Nosy Be from them untill I found the cham i wanted lol.

 

[Squirell]

no worries house is set at 71 and my room is the hottest because its right underneath the furnace. sauna.....

I would definitely add some branches and vines for climbing. Also, that cage will be way too small to house a 9 month old. I got a 3 month old shipped to me and put him in a 30 X 16 X 16. He is now 4 1/2 months old and it is really too small and he is not a huge chameleon either.

Ambilobe from Screameleons, supposed to look similair to Kaboom or Thrasher. Yea we had quite a few subzero days this year. -25 some days with the wind chill.

Ill be upgrading to a 4x2x2 when he gets too big for the current one.
