Climate
placed a humidifier on our Four-Horned
Chameleons (Chamaeleo quadricornis), they basked right near where the humidifier ejected the vaporized
water for about 2 hours. They really enjoy this, and do it almost all the time the humidifier is turned
on. Most chameleons do not require this much humidity, but if the humidity level is too low, they will
soon get dehydrated. Another way to increase the humidity is to mist the cage several times a day,
but this is not nearly as good as a humidifier. Humidifiers can be purchased for about $15 to $20,
but if you buy one, you MUST make sure that it is a cool mist humidifier. The very best humidifiers
to purchase are ultrasonic humidifiers. They expell a fog-like mist, drastically increasing the
humidity in the surrounding area. However, they do cost upwards of $60, but are well worth it.
