Misters are good for 2 things. Keeping your humidity adequate and providing drinking water to your cham.
You should absolutely be spraying your Cham directly during your misting sessions. Doesn’t have to be the whole time, but should definitely be part of your schedule.In short, spray the foliage as spraying your cham will do nothing for it.
3.5 minutes with a MISTKING?Probably don't need to continue spraying overnight. As long as the cage dries out fully (I.e. no droplets still on leaves, branches/vines dry) between sessions and your humidity is within range, it sounds good to me!
My veiled girl gets 3.5 mins in the morning, 2 mins early afternoon, 3.5 mins in the evening, and a 1 min spritz at 10pm to top up her humdity for the night. I have a very dry house and a lot of sensitive plants though haha!
I'll get more photos tomorrow.Filling the viv with live plants goes a long way towards maintaining humidity. If you wanted to post some pics or even fill out the help form we can help you tune it up...
3.5 minutes with a MISTKING?
Boy, that's a lot of water.
I'm using less duration. But more intervals.
AND I finally saw one of them drink!
I suppose you're right. Its NOT that much water. I've had that MISTKING going for a few days now and I also use about 20 ounces of water per dripper (2) and my drain buckets underneath my set up only has about 2 to 2.5" of water in them.It seems like a lot, doesn't it? But that's how long it takes to properly soak my plants haha! I do a 10 minute session once or twice a week, and hand spray just about daily to reach plants that the MistKing just won't cover. I have a very high maintenance enclosure lol!
It works outto about 2 gallons a week, if that. The MistKing has very fine spray! My pressurized hand mister goes through a solid 4 times more in the same time frame.
