Here's a pic of the 2 cage sizes I built. The smaller is for my females (18"x24"x30" of living space). The larger is for my males (24"x24"x42" of living space). I don't house members of the same sex together, these are just examples. Only one cham to a cage. I fill a gallon jug, with a valve I plumb into the bottom, with RO water. I set it at a rate so that it takes about 8 hours to empty. It drips over the leaves and into a rubbermaid container under the screen. I empty these every other day (but can go 5 days if I need to). Thet each contain about 12 feet of real woody vine from the woods nearby, and fake vines with leaves wrapped around them from Walmart (2-3 styles of leaves usually for realism). They each have a 40 watt basking lamp and 2 will share a 30 watt 5.0 reptiglo flo bulb (both on for 8 hours a day). They are on my back porch which gets about 3 hours of dappled sunlight through the trees in the late afternoon. When the light hits them the chams always sit right in it. I mist the leaves in each cage every morning to simulate morning dew, and fill the drippers. Any comments would be more than welcome.

I've tried live plants before and they just seem to rot. I've decided I don't like using them and the chams don't seem to mind. Thanks though. Have a good day.
