Our Chameleon (known to us as Louie ) is getting a bit big for his cage and we want to upgrade to a much bigger one. Only thing is, right now he's in our bedroom and we want to move him into our front room. I cannot for the life of me find a stand/table/cabinet that is big enough for the big screen enclosure we want to get. Also, standing water in the bottom of the cage... drives me insane. Right now I've got a baking sheet with a lip in it, and I use a turkey baster to get the water out that overflows from the plants saucer. Another issue I'm having is with the plant itself, I'm not sure what's wrong with the soil but it's almost like the water (we have a dripper on SLOW and I manually mist him several times a day, I'm a stay at home mommy) goes straight through the soil and drains through to the saucer.
I think we've already decided we're going to have to build our own stand, but I've got no idea as to how to construct a drainage system. We'll be getting a mister and a fountain so that we don't have to have the dripper AND manually mist it all day/everyday.
I'm not sure what to do about this plant, either. Should I just repot it in some fresh/new soil? I've got large river rocks sitting on top of the soil to prevent him from catching any of the soil when he eats.
Does anybody have any tips or advice?!
