Hey welcome. It’s different for everyone, depending on your climate. If you check out the chameleon academy he has a hydration strategy/schedule I found to be very helpful! https://chameleonacademy.com/chameleon-environment/

"Cham constantly looked dehydrated"? How would this look?

The most important misting time is before your lights go off at night

I wish I could be more helpful, I’m still working on my hydration strategy myself.
I would ask someone like @Beman @MissSkittles

I mist during the day. To be exact I have a misting 15 minutes after lights come on and then another one around 4pm and 6:15pm prior to lights off. My cham will not drink consistently from a dripper and if you are misting at night you are hoping for hydration through breathing in the cold humidity. And then drinking from a dripper during the day.

I also live in a very dry climate so I have to mist during the day to increase my daytime humidity to where it needs to be.

I think this is one of those husbandry practices that really needs to be fitted to the chameleon.

I’m sticking to my old misting schedule thank you for this
