I know i am blowing up this food page but i guess i have a lot of questions.:D
http://www.mulberryfarms.com/ I was checking out this site sponsor i see that they are selling these painted lady butterfly's. I know most butterfly's are poisonous but i assume these would be good for a chameleon? Just wondering, i think it would be sweet to have some butterfly's for my cham.
 
I have read in another thread that those go through California from Mexico a lot, and that they are not toxic. I'll try to find the thread for you.

These are Painted lady butterfies, and good to feed. Get them while you can. There moving up from Mexico, and they should be plentiful for the next few days. I caught some today after work, and the parsons love them. Three years ago there were so many, that I only had to hold my net out to catch three or four at a time. If we get a Santa Ana wind event you should see alot more flying around. Hope they last till this weekend, when I can do some real damage with my butterfly net. :)
 
I got some from Mulberry last month. They were great. The chams were kinda like "WTF is this?' at first but then they caught on. I say give it a go. They are ok for your cham to eat.
