Hello to you all!

I am about to build a large Vivarium for a 14 month old Yemon Chameleon
And would like to Know people’s opinions for size limits as I wish to provide a very nice high viv 8"H x 4"W x 2'6"D
3 sides will be netted and the rear shall be solid !

Please advise me!

" = represents inches so that is a very small viv

But 8' is very tall thats only slightly smaller than your average room, also if its only a 14 month old one its prob to big and heating that thing would be very hard im guessing, also youd need multiple uv lights as their effective distance isn't very far. i'm no expert so for finer details il leave to someone else

You might be better posting this in the lizards section as more people will look at it if it is in there
