 Why?

if veild chams are from saudi arabia and yemen, which doesn’t get that much rain, why do we have to mist them like 3 times daily? i know c/b ones have to because they are c/b but why w/c.? i don’t have a w/c, i’m just wondering why we have to mist so much?!

 Why?

Because they drink water from the leaves, walls etc of your enclosure. You have to understand also that the food they eat in the wild is MUCH MUCH different and probably contain higher levels of water for them to absorb. And as such, anmals in the wild adapt.

However when you stick them in an enclosure, you really can’t compare them to any wild chameleon

Anyways, if you’re complaining about misting 3 times a day, why did you get them? I am assuming (hopefully) you read up on them before buying. Misting is an easy thing and takes no more than 5minutes to do.
