TAKE THAT DIRT OUT OF THE BOTTOM ASAP. Use paper towels or nothing at all.

They would need a laying bin if its a female not "paper towels" please be careful with the advice you give.

Maybe its just me but she looks big. She may lay eggs soon. Just be prepared if she starts roaming the bottom of the cage you'll have to get a lay bin in there right away. Female panthers are very easy to tell apart at that age. I'm surprised they sold you her saying it was a male. She looks like a beautiful girl in any case.

Yes, that dirt substrate is not good. But nothing at all isn’t the best way to go either. Look into bioactive substrate.

How did you take care of the baby female veiled you bought a year ago? Do you still have her? Please listen to the knowledgeable people here who are trying to help you set up her enclosure and care for her.

And you please be careful when you correct someone. Sam is correct when he says to get ride of the dirt. And you are correct when you say she needs a bin. However The dirt in the bottom of the cage now can not serve as a lay bin so it’s got to go.

of course get rid of the dirt, but paper towels? I understand dirt is a no go but to also put in all caps to leave nothing? I just thought it was misinformed in this case.

Ummm??? What that dirt all along the cage in the photo..... why would you assume that’s ok? That has nothing to do with a lay bin.... 12in deep potted plant or even a mop bucket would be better.

This is what I was thinking as well. From the questions asked at the beginning of this thread, I am not getting a great feeling about this.

Get rid of the substrate, try to get a good size hibiscus plant something that helps with the humidity, real plants leaves also hold water Much better, make sure your misting at least 5 minutes 3 times a day, best of luck with your beautiful Panther.

@Casper92 This is the second chameleon you have bought and didn't know the sex of. The first one, the veiled, where is she now? and how did you care for her? Seems you would have learned the proper care of a chameleon by now, but I have a bad feeling about this......

He would have to do a major light upgrade for a hibiscus to survive in that viv...

You have 3 options when it comes to substrate:
1 bare floor
2 bioactive
3 paper
