My wife just got our first chameleon two weeks ago. We had a bearded dragon until old age found him but it was an entirely different habitat so I've been fartin' around in the enclosure section here. There is sooo much information it's just incredible. I love the internet.
Our infant veiled is in one of those glass starter kit cages but I'm finishing up a new screen enclosure I've been building. In reading through this site I noticed thread after thread regarding drainage setups. How much moisture is necessary for these reptiles? My initial searches on the net showed many people using a fog mister to distribute dripping moisture on the leaves. Here on this site I've seen everything from simulated rain to advanced misting systems. Is that much water necessary or are some of these more aggresive watering systems only necessary in extra dry situations?
I'm going to incorporate drainage in my enclosure mainly because it's so simple to do but also just in case.
Great forum by the way with alot of experienced members. Looking forward to getting into this like the focused nerd I can be.
