hanging plants in enclosure

[l0u1ss]

hey guys I was browsing through the enclosure thread and I see a lot of people with hanging plants inside their enclosure. I like the look of this but I was just wondering, does anybody worry about their cham drinking the water draining out of the plant?

No, I've never really had that problem. I find that if I have a nozzle aiming at a pothos plant, for example, the chameleon comes up to the top of the plant to drink from the spray on the leaves under it and to soak in the mist at the same time. I've never really found anyone at the bottom/middle of the cage drinking the tea-colored water (not that I have THAT much mist, I don't usually over-saturate the plants). I feel like they can probably tell the difference as well, and they know where the fresh, good water comes out of (and they know WHEN too, if you use a very firm schedule, and they'll be waiting by the nozzle before it goes off.)

Olimpia is probably right but have to admit that's a good question .
