although i'm not as experienced as some people here, i'll throw out a few tips, and let them handle some of the other things.



although i'm not familiar with that particular chamleon, my understanding is glass is always, ALWAYS a no-no. the reflections in the glass can upset and stress the chameleons. as for keeping the humidity up, keeping it hot(but not too hot!) and misting a few times a day does the trick for me. in dealing with the size of their enclosure, bigger is usually better. and for the price of a 20 gallon(at least around here) you can get nice big reptariums from lllreptile. they're a little flimsy, but mine have held up fine. most screened enclosures are small enough holes so crickets can't get out, but i've heard they can chew through the mesh on reptariums, although it hasn't happened to me yet.

i hope that was a little helpful, but i'm sure everyone else can give a little better tips than i.



good luck!
