Panther Chameleon Setup

[purplebiotch]

I've looked all over the place for what the proper cage size and setup is for a panther chameleon. But i keep getting different answers

would a 4x2x2 cage be big enough? I also think that i will eventually add a cage extender that would make it 6 foot which I'm sure is tall enough but is it wide enough?

Its just fine.

Most of us house adult panthers in 2x2x4 cages.

oh ok thankyou Everything i found online said that a minimum of 3x3x4 was needed 5x5x6 was recommended i was astonished as the thought of that. LOL

well bigger is always better.

From what Ive seen 4ft. is tall enough, the only thing I will change on my next enclosure would be to increase the width to 3 ft. This allows the Cham to vary temps without the only option being to go down, as 1 single spot light casts light across entire top of cage. As well as a better plant spread. I didn't plan on moving my Nosy Faly into big boy cage until 1 year old.
