Hi All,
Please can you kindly give me some guidelines, I just want some reassurance on Misting and misting techniques for my chameleon, same with dusting ect.. just some experienced advice as i am not too sure with what i was told when i bought him, i keep reading different things and i believe here is the best place for it and for me to learn my way and give my chameleon the best life possible.
Many Thanks in advance.
