I have been working on a complete overhaul/redesign of the chameleons habitats for the last few weeks and I'm not finished yet.
Thought I would share some preview pictures.
These enclosures are various sizes (all 24" high) ranging from 12x18 to 18x18 and are housing, or will house a variety of smaller species:
T. montium
T.deremensis
T.cristatus
R. spectrum
T. jacksonii xantholophus
R. brevicaudatus
F. lateralis
etc.
The enclosures are wood on three sides and the bottom with screen doors and top.
The bottom is built as a box (from 4" to 7" tall) that is planted.
Drainage layers from bottom up are: hydroton, charcoal, soil.
The wood is painted with latex paint and 2 coats of water based polyurethane.
The bottoms are lined with plastic.
I have been successful making these enclosures cricket proof.
