Yemen Chameleon Help please

[snail1992]

would a wooden vivarium be ok to keep a Yemen Chameleon in also how do you no what heat bulb to go for and uvb.

hi there, you can keep them in wooden viv as long as the ventilation is good and the wood is treated because you have to mist 3 times a day and if the wood is not treated it will rot.
the viv needs to be taller than it is wider so most wooden vivs do not suit chams.
I made my own viv with a wooden frame and wooden back but have netting on the sides and front for good ventilation.

you will need a 60watt light for basking and a 5% uvb strip light.
