[@chrschrs7514]

@@NORTHERNEXOTICS... Awesome... I built my chameleon a cage it's also bioactive... I rescue animals also so I have a few cats that had very sad stories with the mesh screen enclosures doesn't really work well for me...lol... My chameleon is a rescue also... With the cats it's pretty funny he actually doesn't mind them...

Future tip ive found is a bread knife seems to work alot easier of cutting the expanding foam.

[@NORTHERNEXOTICS]

Electric bread knife .....;)

Can you order online from Home Depot? I can find them in the UK at all?

[@boredandwatching3140]

What rain and misting system did you use ?

[@lucerob.8300]

Did the plaster you used crack after dried?

[@martins2657]

Very nice build, i have the only one objection. Why do you use a Springtails? You need to check Chameleon poop for chameleon health. But bugs eats all the evidence.

[@AlexHeath93]

I have an adult male Yemens chameleon that i was asked to take on from reptile rescue because of his temperament. We have named him Rambo and he is absolutely mental. He lives in large enclosure but also has a climbing frame in our bay window with uv and basking lights hanging from the ceiling.

[@NORTHERNEXOTICS]

Sounds like an amazing setup

[@zxcvbnm33054]

Nice vid . how did you get Neil Buchanan to do the voice over 🤭

[@sallywilliams2097]

Wow! Need to implement some of these features into my bioactive enclosures. Thank you for the informative video!

[@benj6516]

This looks absolutely brilliant. My DIY skills are non existent, I wonder would you ever build an enclosure and sell? Also I’ve read conflicting info on Mesh enclosures especially being in the UK where temperatures are low, is it hard to keep the enclosure temperature?

[@JoshThompson25]

So in the wild babies have free range so why wouldnt it be fine to have on in the XL cage? I have seen plenty of others say get the xl cage from the start and babies are fine to have in it

[@DunkinBiscuits]

Another great video mate im in the middle of a chameleon build myself so this was very helpful, can i ask what the name of the small leafed carpeting plant that you used is? Is it a type of baby tears? Would look great for what i have in mind

[@iantru9929]

what is the size of the enclosure?

[@NORTHERNEXOTICS]

This is a reptibreeze xl. It's 2x2x4 we use it for our green tree python now

[@monsterkajiu1912]

I don't have a chameleon.

[@zachmendyke7552]

You really only want to use pencil size branches having too wide of a stance for a basking spot can cause them to get hernias

[@Issadana]

Please help I have just purchased a veiled chameleon. Im in the philippines. The ambient temperature here is 29-33 degrees C. Do i still need to use a heat bulb? The pet store said i do but i am slightly confused about the temperature. Night time temps only drop to 26 degress C minimum.

[@kezwilliams2599]

Do you build these to sell ? I’d love one but I’m not creative enough 😢

Your thumbnail is a veiled chameleon recolored in photoshop, just so you know.. probably already do cause it’s probably a clickbait just for people like me

Surely you can't really think this is the world's first mesh, bioactive chameleon cage, there's loads on KZbin and we all know youtubers search youtube for their next video idea so you must have seen them 😖

Hello all, just wondering if anyone can help me, I have recently bought a female chameleon from a garden centre who had reptiles for sale, basically I have owned bearded dragons in the past and I’ve missed having them so for my birthday my partner said he would get me a reptile, went there thinking tortoise but seen the chameleon and fell in love basically, we told them had no experience with chameleons but have had dragons, they told us that they basically the same but they eat only one type of insect and no greens etc thought that was a bit strange but went with it, so told them get us everything she would need, our house is huge so it does get cold so they gave us a wooden viv, bark and plastic plants and two logs, the lady told us they super friendly love being handled and they live for 15 years which I didn think was right but didn realise it’s more like 4yrs which I’m gutted about, the bark they gave us the chameleon started to eat so I removed it all, what I’m asking is what substrate should she been on and what plants is the best for her, I’m starting to think I should never have gotten her but kinda got talked into it buy the lady who sold her to us saying how easy they are to look after and how long they live, with her and her viv and everything we paid just under £500 starting to think we got ripped off and given a load of false information, gonna have to take her to vets just encase the bark she ate which was a big piece has done anything to her :( I just want what’s best for her.
