Glass cage

[flixcore]

OK ! i know Glass cage should never be use....but i have a 3'x2x1,8' glass vivarium and i want a rudis OR carpet OR jackson Cham, then my question is, IF i put a small pc fan on the top of the glass terrarium to provide more vent, it will be ok ????

First that is a common misconception that you cannot use glass. What brand of cage is it? I know that you can use Exo-Terra and they work pretty well with air flow and keep the humidity very well. Post pictures of your Vivarium.

This is a good read https://www.chameleonforums.com/everyone-who-knows-you-cant-keep-chams-glass-31937/

pass any of the bickering and read everything Chris Anderson has to say. Folks in Europe have been using glass enclosures with great success for many years it just depends on the type of chameleon.

Tank design aside, the size is very minimal for your chosen species IMHO. The smaller the useable space the harder it will be to provide a gradient of temp and humidity your cham will require and have enough sheer space for your live plants. The cham will need to live in the plant structure basically so you want to offer the largest plants possible.

This size could work very well for a group of pygmy chams.

I would take out the stuff from the bottom of the cage and any water at the bottom. They can drown and eat the chunks at the bottom of the cage. Also the crickets or whatever you feed to your chameleon would drown or hide in it.

Also the humidifier will most likely stress and freeze them. I have never had success with a humidifier that close to the cage. It works better just to mist the cage.

As far as class cages go that one will work fine as long as you make the adjustments. Also don't put a fan in the cage or directly on it because that will cause to much of a draft. Maybe have a fan running near by but not directly at the cage.

Hope this info helps.

I think that cage could house a Jackson fine if he adds some more foliage

It has some good size to it IMO
