Her terrarium looks better in person, I am not a great photographer. We found sticks and branches. We baked them and cleaned them. Bought plants, cleaned their leaves and repotted them with organic soil. There is still a fake vine in the here for added cover, and we will replace that as well.

Zena seems to be doing better. She shed today.

We are planning on no night heat lamp. We will add a digger if needed. We live in Mississippi and the humidity is always high.

Zena is our first reptile. My main concern is the night time temperature. I hear cooler is ok at night, but when I turned off one of her heat lamps earlier she turned black until I turned it back on.

I am setting up my Monsoon mister for 2 minutes 3x per day. 12 hours of UV light T5 light with 5.0 bulb. Trying to get her basking spot to 82 in the day. Switching to a 50 night time bulb. I am putting her terrarium on a 2 foot tall
Table to get her off the floor. Looking to replace these plastic plants with real plants, making sure they are safe for chameleons and swapping out the plant soil with safe soil for her. Am I missing anything?

She is stressed out so I am trying to hold off swapping out the plants for a while.
