I'm about to cave.

Still doing a Dubia Stand-Off. I now suspect he is eating a fly or two that is in the room because there is no way he has gone this long without eating something. He looks great, color is beautiful, alert and eyed a dubia this morning but then shunned away. Whatever dude. I am misting regularly and he is very active, climbs around his plant licking all over, his tongue looks good when I see him drinking, sort of a light peach color? Hard to explain the color. Not yellow, not white, not pink, light peach is the best description I've got right now, looks nice if that makes sense. Eyes not sunken, if I didn't know he wasn't eating I wouldn't believe it.

He's gotta be eating flies, or maybe his plant I don't know if panther's eat plants though. I took a break and didn't offer for a couple days, I've offered in the morning and early afternoon, nope he will not do a dubia. I have offered a smaller sized one, a larger one, even offered un-dusted ones thinking maybe the powder look was putting him off. Same cup that I use for superworms, he has eaten Dubias out of this cup before, same cup I have used for quite some time actually, a month I think.

I could get a few crickets but I read somewhere that the dubias were "meatier" so I was going to rotate those with superworms. (which has now backfired) I could offer something else I guess but I'm wondering if that is "caving in" as well.

Brat Chameleon is going to win soon, I can feel it.

One of my chameleons wont eat Dubia either, because they dont move enough to catch his attention. They are too boring for him. Sometimes he will eat one if I put one in a feeding cup, and then jiggle the cup so the dubia keeps moving around instead of just sitting there.
