Hey,



In my opinion your plan wouldn't work. You can't house more than one cham per enclosure unless it is very very large. If you are putting babies that hatch in with them, they will most likely get eaten by the adults. As Diane was saying, most glass blocks uvb, and the glass is going to form bacteria and parasites are going to spread very easily unless you clean it very often, which you didn't seem to add to your plan; cleaning. An enclosure that big is very difficult to clean. I am not sure how many chameleons you have had in the past, but to create a room like you are talking about just isn't possible, unless you are very knowlegable in chameleons, and only plan on having a few chams in it; I have heard of keeping more than one cham in together, but not males. It would have to be a pair, or a trio, and even that should be left up to the experts. Even the stress to the females will be a lot expecially when they don't want to breed or are gravid. Creating a room such as you aretalking about is also going to cost a lot. You are going to need to spend either alot of money on special lighting, or special uvb transparent glass/acrylic(if you can get it). You will probably to make drains in the floor to excess water. It just seems very unpractical to me. But these are just my opinions, and people might disagree with me.



If I was you, I would think of investing in some cages. Will make life alot easier.



-Adam.
