Anyone design any kind of cup to keep crickets from escaping the cup, while enabeling a Jackson's to feed from the cup? If I can do this, then I may not cricket-proof my cage to enable better sunlight in.
If I were to free range feed crickets to a Jackson's, how large would TOO large of a cage be? I heard that if you were free range feeding crickets, and your cage is too large, then your chameleon will not be able to catch the crickets.

Day or night? I heard that when they sleep they do not camouflage? Not sure if this is correct.
How high in the trees should I be looking?
Any type of trees?
Any recommendations about getting my new Anole (brown) to eat? I think he is full grown. I usually need to grab him, get him to open his mouth, and place the cricket in his mouth. On only two occasions he ate when I rubbed the cricket on his face, which caused him to open his mouth.

Anole, Jackson's, or Panther ... for Newbie
I'm new to this whole lizard owning, and am thinking of getting one to keep for my nephew.
Are Anoles easier to keep than the Jackson's, or Panther? There are many Anoles running around (for free). However, it seems like Anoles are fast and run...
