Misting Schedule Question

[Sancho]

Seems like a lot of water how do you keep it from getting over flow on the bottom of the cage and leaking out? Also what about the mist getting all over the stuff inside your house thats next to the cage? I have a APT and have my chams in my room. on my dresser next to my tv

Draining system I seen that. But other then that? I can't put a draining system where it's located. I spray the inside of the cage and make sure the leafs and everything get pretty wet and spray the chams.

yeah I'm going to try the green flooring with paper towels under it.

dont do the green flooring, waste of money and it will stink and cause problems; ive tried it. just keep it bare and put a paper towel or two where the water might drip.

I hope my water system is waiting on my porch when I get home. I really do but I doubt it. I bet it comes tomorrow. All these great responses got me ready to drench my chameleon in a shower of H20 love.

whether you have a misting system or not, I would recommend moving your Chams away from any electrical equipment due to the water issues. accidents happen. As far as keeping the mist in the cage. Shorter and more frequent sessions, or adding
additional covering on the one or two sides of the cage. More plants will also help to keep mist in the cage.

Hope that helps.

time = money, the sooner you realize it, the faster you will get the auto mister.

I would have to fill that mister at least 6-7 times a day to mist all of my Chameleons. I am guessing you have only one Cham. I can use all that time saved staring at them if I want. Ah the freedom.

Along with addiction of Chameleons come the addiction of doing everything easier and more conveniently. Its all part of the fun.

Shoot, if they had an auto cricket dispenser I would use that.
