Yea the crickets do climb the cage, but for some reason he completely ignores them on the screen too. Even if they walk right past him. He only seems to eat crickets that are on a leaf/branch, etc and if not he just patrols around the cage past a bunch on the screens. :\

Yea it is getting pretty frustrating for me. He will completely ignore a cup. I've tried multiple types of cups and multiple locations. He will look at them but does nothing. If I let free-roam crickets in, he will actively hunt them but only if they manage to stay in the upper part of the...

Do you feed them in any specific way? Mine still stresses me out since I feel like he still isn't eating enough. I let crickets free-roam during the day, but most just fall to the bottom pan and stay down there. My cham almost never goes to the bottom half of the enclosure, so he never sees...
