Mist King Misting Schedule

[mschultz]

I just set up my mist king. Its beautiful. But my chameleon still doesn't like the water. But she should like it more then my invasive spray bottle.

So what schedule should I set up? I teach middle school, and the chameleon is in my classroom. So I bought the mist king for the over the weekend watering.

How many times should I mist a day?
How often should I mist each time?
Should I still use a dripper Monday-Friday? And if so, should that mean that I mist less M-F and mist more on the weekends?

Chameleon info:
Female Jackson Chameleon - probably about 10 months old, maybe a year.

Cage Info:
I have a live hibiscus in her cage. Branches, fake vine and a fake viney/leafy plant.
Cage is reptibreeze screen medium (working this summer to build a larger one) ~3ft tall, 1.5ft square.
Substrate tray on the bottom for holding water - no substrate (Holds ~1.5 gallons of water; if I did my math right)

Let me add that I'm in Hawaii... Humidity ranges from 50-70. Temps in cage range from 82 (top) to 78 (bottom).

My schedule for mine is 11 am a hour after the cage warms for 3 mins at 330 pm for 5 mins and 630 pm for 4 mins then I let the cage dry out till 10 when the lights go out. But I'm in maryland and humidity is low here right now usually 3 or 4 times a day should be good
