Fruits for my veiled

What fruits are ok for my male veiled because I just gave him some banana and he had some apple before.

My veil will not eat fruits but I tried strawberries and grapes. I see pictures on here of other cham eating these so I guess they are safe. Jann

out of my 4 veileds, one eats strawberries...just little pieces. I hand fed her a piece when she is small and now she eats from a dish. She has learned that she can't use her tongue to slurp it up but has to bite it. Took awhile though. Two others eat kale. My only male will have nothing to do with veggies or fruit, just wants MEAT!

hay my chams eat all fruit and veg they love it, i think if i let them they would eat it all the time, but that aint no good
mine eat: apple, bannanah, peach, pear,strawberry, orange(sometimes) collard greens, dandilion, lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes(sometimes) they even eat brocilli...... if you want to be sure just reseach the veg or friut on the net to see if its piosonous if its not try it with them, hope that helps

when you say dandilion do you mean the yellow flower that is very common (well it is in england).

You named two vegetables that are bad for your chameleon to eat, and you feed them after warning someone else not to.

You want to avoid Tomato, Broccoli, and spinach.
These vegetables can inhibit the absorption of calcium.

Stick to feed your chameleons potato chip thin slices of veggies and not fruits.
Cucumber, sweet potato, and zucchini are some of my favorites.
