Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Howdy Kaelee,
Skip anything that doesn't always supply virgin water to the cham. Waterfalls etc. just end up being a sewer filled with bacteria. Chams almost never drink from anything but dripping water or water dripped/misted onto foliage.

The waterfall that i was thinking of getting was one that had a water pump so that the water kept moving and stayed clean. it also has a fogger wich i thought would help to keep the humidity up in the cage seeing as my house stays pretty dry. but if the waterfall is bad for my chameleon i wont get one.

I strongly believe you will just be circulating dirty water... Some sort of filtration would be necessary to clean the water as it is pumped.

I was planning on getting one 2 to keep the humidity up and thought it would look cool especially with the fogger. Can you just get a fogger by itself and will it harm/stress the cham.
Thanks,
Jacob

Actually an easy trick way to keep humidity is I have cool water ultrasonic humidifier made by Vick's placed right in the enclosure (my enclosure's are 30x30x72 so i have plenty of room in the base)I wouldnt suggest a waterfall for them being like a sewage as mentioned above none of the water falls come with any type of bio filter to actually "keep the water clean" plus theyre really bad for bacteria if poo lands in them i wouldnt risk any chance of my cham drinking cessed water i run my humidafiers for a few hrs a day the better ones will hold 2 gallons good for about 14 hrs of use ,you can get them at most stores for better than what waterfalls cost but make sure you get only cool mist and make sure they are ultrasonic ,they actually blow a micro mist thru the enclosure like the popular "foggers" do i also use a hand spray bottle everyother day i also adjust the adjuster so that it blows near only one basking spot and not the entire cage so they can move away from the mist at their leisure ,hope this can be of help to you
