Which is your preference

[Eshelton3]

Hello everyone! I was trying to find the best cage for me and my chameleon. I’ve recently found 3 that have caught my eye but I’m not entirely sure on their differences and I don’t want to spend money on something im not happy with. I was looking at a Zen, dragon strand, and Tamura designs. Which is your favorite and why. This will help me decide on the right choice

So are you looking at all hybrids? First look at your ambient humidity in your house. If it is high having a hybrid is going to be hard to get the humidity levels down.

Personally I do not like the Zen cages... They do not have service doors that open and seem to be poor quality with no drainage at all. Dragon strand cages are amazing and I have had a few of them but you still have to modify the drainage pans or wet vac them. I love what I am seeing coming out of Tamura designs. If you can afford it then I would put my money there. Drainage is already set for you and you can go with plants or bio active easily.

I love the Zen enclosure I have my beardie in, but can’t imagine how something like that would work well for a chameleon. The drainage and ventilation would be my biggest concerns.
Tamura enclosures are gorgeous and if I could afford them, my chams would be in them. However, with my budget and 5 chams, my most realistic dream goal is Dragonstrands, but I don’t see those happening anytime soon.

I’m looking for more of a hybrid cage.
