Listen to our friggin advice boxie...quit being such a sellfish @$$! just listen to our advice! YOu have good intentions, but bad expressions! Get your facts right and quit argiung!



On the matter of repteriums being good or bad, is opnion based. Personaly i use them for sick animals. They are portable, collabsalbe, and washable. Other than that they are a pina inthe butt! The zipper can get jammed, crix can chew there way out, and heat bulbs can somtimes melt the mesh! You can avoid all of those conciquences though!



1. Slowly and carefuly zip up the cage



2. Bowl feed your cham. This means that you have a small bowl at the bottom of the cage. YOu place the crix in and they cant escape and eat your plants and chew through the mesh.



3. Dont let the bulbs come in direct contact with the mesh. Simply raise the bulb an inch off of the top.



Repteriums also allow the keeper poor visibility into the cage. This is both good and bad. If you want to have a nice display animal hsi colors will be supressed by the thick mesh. At the smae time, it makers it harder for your chameleon to see you. This is great for easily stressed species such as Fishers and Peacock chameleons.



Really i think you need to just listen to our advice. We have kept chameleons, you have not. It is as simple as that! We know how to care for them, you dont! Quit trying to cut corners on these beautiful animals!
