    All Worm Diet?

    Yato, my panther chameleon, only likes to eat worms. Not literally earthworms, but all the usual reptile bugs that looks like worms or caterpillars: superworms, mealworms, hornworms, silkworms, BSFL etc. I think it's something about the way they wiggle that excites him into eating them. He's...

    Dubias loose in Yato's Enclosure

    Hello! I'm looking for a way to capture loose dubias in my enclosure without endangering my chameleon Yato. Please let me know if you have any recommendations.

    Dubia Colony for Sale - LA, California

    Hello! I have a fully active Dubia Roach and Mealworm Colony that I no longer need. Unfortunately, Yato my chameleon has decided that he hates Dubias and refuses to eat them.

    Do Chameleons have people preferences?

    I'm wondering, are chameleons able to distinguish between different people? If I tame my chameleon and build trust with him, will he associate that trust with all humans or only me specifically? I just got a new panther chameleon and I'm curious what to expect. What has been your experience?
