Hi, I am a new chameleon owner and I adopted a one year old female chameleon from a couple who said they were unable to take care of her because of lack of knowledge and fear of her. Let's just say it seemed like a bad situation and I was happy to try to give her a better life. I am just looking for feedback on the enclosure I set up for her. I currently have one live plant and the rest is fake foliage and vines. I am using a 125w incandescent heat lamp though it seems I may need to upgrade as the basking zone isn't getting hot enough. I am using a long zoo med fixture with a repti 5.0 ubv bulb. I have a automatic mister running for 1 minute every 2 hours which I need to adjust as the humidity is hitting 45% between mistings. I have 2 thermometer/humidity meters in there and I just ordered a heat gun. I have a large pot on the bottom with sanitized top soil that I have the one live plant in. This is also acting as a nesting space for her. Just looking for feedback or suggestions if I am missing anything or need to change anything in general. I will try to get some better pics tonight. Thanks!
