I am going to get a female veild cham and I was thinking about making her a cage that is 18x18x36in. It is just that every thing that I have looked at for veilds has totally different sizes. What do you guys think? Will that be big enough?

Cage size is sometimes a matter of opinion. I tend to give my chams bigger cages than some others here. I've found that the larger the cage the more microclimates and roaming area I can offer to the cham and they do better. IMHO, a cage 18x36 is too small, as it will be harder to get lots of good climbing foliage, drinking surfaces, humidity hiding area, and general roaming routes in that space. A big schefflera or Ficus will take up almost all the light too. I would give a veiled a minimum of a 24x24x36 cage.
