Today we are going to dive into cleaning products. We chameleon keepers are acutely aware of the value of cleanliness. We maintain a constant vigilance against parasites, bacteria, and fungal bizarreness. It is time we explore the cleaning agents available to us. I am bringing back Dr. Rob Coke who is the head of veterinary medicine at the San Antonio Zoo!

Dragon Strand Chameleon Cage with Two Floors Included
The Dragon Strand Large Keeper Bundle contains a drainage tray with two physical barriers for the floor. There is a plastic floor and a screen floor. The screen floor gives the maximum drainage and allows water to flow through so there is not the spread of fecal material as water hits it. A solid floor panel is included in case the cage design requires there to be plants on the bottom. The idea situation is that all plants are up on the sides using the included Dragon Ledges and the screen floor is used at the bottom. The plastic floor can then be kept in waiting to be used for the time when the screen door comes out for its regular cleaning.
This cage is 23.75″ wide x 23″ deep x 48″ tall and comes with five Dragon Ledges that allow mounting branches and plants along the side, a drainage tray that collects water outside the cage, two floor types for options as well as hygiene protocol, and a hydration mount that will allow the mounting of a misting nozzle and the entry for 1/4″ drip system tubing.
