You mean an automated mister? I have two Veiled Chams and make do with a pressure pump spray bottle. Some mornings I really wish I had a mistking, but it's not really needed (just depends on how much time you are prepared to stand around holding the bottle every day).
Only if you aren't able to be around enough does it become really necessary..........

I deliberately mist my Chams..........they drink like that most days, sometimes they just walk away though.........It also helps them shed if you get them a bit wet.

I have the luxury of working from a home office (most of the time); and I "only" have 2 panther chameleons so far... so I have gotten by nicely with the a hand sprayer/mister (it's time consuming but can be nice bonding time with the chameleons), but I have bit the bullet and my MistKing should be delivered tomorrow and I am so very stoked....
If you do stick with the hand misting, my recommendation is that you just make sure you 1) are religiously consistent several times a day (for more than a couple of minutes per cage); and 2) at least spend $15-$20 at Home Depot or Lowes for a 1 gallon pressure sprayer that will give you a nice long consistent and fine mist ($2 hand pump sprayers = futility and in my case burned and blistered hands after a couple of weeks - just not worth it IMO)....
Really a personal choice, but of all the equipment and feeder supplies I have forked out for my babies so far, I am most excited about installing my MistKing this weekend! Just my 2 cents....

I think I'll order one tomorrow.. Does anyone know a good uk website I can get one from? Should it be a habba mister or a mist king

definitely
I have a habba mister don't get one I am definitely going to be getting myself a Mistking ASAP also. I hate this habba mister but it does do the job for now but only for one Cham. The one mistking can be set up for multiple Chams for what I was told and much better product...

I only have one Cham so it'd be fine right?
