What kind of rope can I use in my cham cages? As they get bigger they look like the thin vine doesn't support them very well.

Depending on the species, use 1/2" to 3/4" rope. The cheapest is the polystyrene rope they use for e.g., water skiing but the chams really seem to prefer the more expensive hemp or sisal rope. They seem to like the thicker rope so for all the commonly held species, go for the 3/4" for anything the size of a jacksonii or larger. You'll find both types of rope in any decent hardware store.
