My chameleon will eat nothing but crickets. I throw in mealworms and even silk worms. Tried putting them in a cup, and I also tried letting the silkworms climb on branches for a more free ranging effect. He won't even touch them. He just waits for me by the screen to throw the crickets in, then...
what i actually did was cut some screen mesh and made a cover over the plant, so he'll stay out of it. I wrapped all the sharp edges with eletric tape. I will probably end up putting some organic soil on top just incase.

hey guys, i have this 24x24x36 all screen cage i bought off amazon. First problem is that my chameleon keeps trying to climb on the screen, but ends up falling sometimes. Is that bad if they fall like that? She can climb everything else just fine, but most of the attempts at the screen she ends...
Sorry guys. Unfortunatly, she did die as soon as I posted on the forums. I had a more experienced vet schedualed for tomaro. It makes sence as far as being RI, and it makes it pissed that the vet couldn't figure that out when I actually brought him a sample of what she was throwing up. He simply...

I had a question on UVB lighting for a 24inch wide cage. I recently just upgraded from a 15inch to this new 24 inch all screen cage. The top UVB Hood Canopy was an 18 inch hood. Do you guys think I should upgrade to a new 24 inch hood? Or would I be ok with the original 18 inch.
