[Daguerreotype13]

What type of screening should i use for my new enclosure? i'm making an outdoor cage for the summer and haven't a clue what type of screen to encase the cage with.

ie: color, material, etc

I would use aluminum screen. You can sometimes find a type of tough black nylon screen as well. All I can say is, don't use anything that is galvanized, like hardware cloth for example. When it gets wet, it is not safe for the chameleons to drink off of.

as I am sitting here splining in screen right now,lol. Go with aluminum screen and think about color. Lowes sell a charcoal and a plain aluminum color screen. I use the charcoal myself but it isnt as "bright" inside as sum I have done for friends who went with the plain. Therefore I use a 10.0 and have no problems, Happy splining and don't poke yourself to many times,lol. And just a FYI I learned from Jdog's youtube vids on how to make them,just went to a 2x2x4. Copying his drainage system after I get this last cage built.
