T. Hoenelli Eating Issues?

Mine are each in a 16x16x20 cage. I have a ficus that touches all four corners of the cages. I have lots of small sticks going every which way. I cheat, my two have their own bathroom. The cages sit on 2 bars across the tub. Misters are 1 1/2 minutes twice a day and a dripper goes most of the day. I have a piece of fabric on the side of one cage, to block view of the other one, the rest of the cages are just open screen. My feeding cups are just plastic cups with the bottom cut off a screen gluded on the bottom. They are worthless for these little ones! As soon as I put crickets in they Jump out, and bean beetles? They go where every they want!!
Mine are doing great and I love them to bits.

Ah okay, good to know they do fine in smaller if I have to go there. Oh thats awesome! must be super easy to maintaine with that type of drainage underneath. Alright, yeah I have no dripper but I do allow for a bit more misting. Sounds like youre on your way to an awesome experience :] The best of luck!
 
Are they T.Hoenelli Hoenelli (Kenya) or T.Hoenelli altaeelgonis (Uganda)?

They look like my T.Hoenelli Hoenelli. My guys are also eating 1/4 inch crickets free range in a repti-breeze small.

IMHO you should not feel guilty about holding them if they are eating. Each chameleon is different so as keepers, we need to be able to know when to adapt.

Any chance you have any females available for sale? I think my guy is coming around to his new enclosure, I have seen him eat and drink a bunch more since I redid it. Also think I could maybe steal your suplimentation cycle? right now I'm doing Reptivit every other day, Repashy +D3 once every other week, and Repashy no D3 once every other week that I'm not giving +D3.
