What humidity level should a chameleon have?

A chameleon should have a humidity level that matches what they would experience in the wild. This varies considerably by species, and it changes between night and day. For daytime, a panther chameleon needs 50-60% humidity, a veiled chameleon needs 30-40% humidity, and a Jackson's chameleon does best with 30-50% humidity. At night, all species do best if the humidity level exceeds 70%.

How do you control humidity in a chameleon cage?

You control humidity in a chameleon cage using misters, foggers, and drippers. The type of enclosure and live plants can also play an important role in humidity control.

Do chameleons need high humidity?

Chameleons need high humidity at night — 70-100% is normal nighttime humidity for chameleons in the wild. During the day, they require much lower humidity, but the ideal amount will depend on what kind of chameleon you have.

How often should I mist my chameleon?

You should mist your chameleon a few times a day. Some experts recommend misting twice a day ideally once in the morning and once at night to avoid misting when the air is too warm. You may need to adjust the duration and frequency of misting to keep the enclosure's humidity within a proper range.
