Silk of Plant plants

[Debbie61]

Hello,

I am in the midst of getting stuff together for my Veiled Chameleon setup. I have a live ficus plant and was looking to get more plants for my cage. Do any of you use silk or plastic vines in your enclosure? Is there a risk of putting fake plants or vines in the cage? I need to get something else besides the ficus in there for him to hide in. Looking forward to your suggestions.

I really like the Pothos it seems to hold the water for a long time to help keep up the humidity and also does quite well inside. You can use some fake vines if you just keep a close eye on your little guy. Veileds love to eat stuff.

I threw in a big old shefflera in my veiled's cage, and the plant grows like a monster. Other than that I just threw in a bunch of artificial vines. I didn't and won't need any silk plants in there.

Thanks Jannb, I have been looking at the Pothos and they are abundant at the stores. I was a little leary of putting silk plants in my enclosure. I'll do my best to go all natural.
Thanks Thegentleman, I'd love to have an umbrella plant, but just can't find any locally right now.
