New Cham Owner, Advice and Input Appreciated

[EðlatheCham]

Hey there everyone, new member here. This post seemed to be the closest to my topic, so I decided to post in here. I recently procured a one month old veiled from a reptile expo in Orange County. The breeder said they were born on Easter, which was the 27th this year. I came to the conclusion that there is no tarsal spur, so I named her Eðla, which means lizard in Icelandic. I currently have a very small tree that I cut down as her main hideout. I washed it all off and then stuck it in her enclosure and she seems to like it. I would post pictures but it happens to be her nighttime right now. I'll post a picture in the morning. Anyways, I just bought a Cherie hibiscus, golden pothos, and a blueberry bush. I also have a bromelaid tillandsia. I was wondering if anyone else has ever done anything with a berry bush, is it even a good idea? I won't be putting it in until I get her a bigger viv, I would just really fancy some input from some members. Thanks everyone.

Depending on the temps and lighting the blueberry will want, it could work. Just have to watch and see. It might want cooler temps than a cham setup will provide. Not an expert though. Another option for your larger enclosure is a Ficus alli. aka "lance-leaved Ficus". They are often available through larger houseplant nurseries. I like them as they are sturdier than the more common Ficus benjamina (weeping Fig).

Awesome, thanks for the input! I was going to post a picture a second ago, but whenever I pulled my phone out, she kept making a dark spotted pattern. So I decided to just hold off on the picture lol.
