Thanks everyone! They are pretty amazing. And a lot work and they eat a lot!

Do they get a lot of scratches from that? Id be worried that they might shoot at a feeder at the same time and get their tongues tangled or harmed?

No scratches. They will climb over each other sometimes but really don't get scratched from it.

Aside from a cool photo op we make sure to feed them one at a time. Holding a cup with feeders in it rather than just a cricket in my hand is easier to control - we can angle it so only one can reach in at a time.

Since we have these and other chameleons that free range and live in groups we are pretty good at controlling feeding and minimizing dangers.

Bet thats a hand full My matschiei would try and snag feeders out of each others mouths when they were both in a free range. Had to get them on opposite sides to feed them. Little turds!

The most amazing thing happened.

Hi Karen,

This morning, the most amazing thing happened while reading your article in the February Edition of Chameleon News.

While right in the middle of reading your article I heard a plop from behind my home office desk and there he was.

Melvin Meller, my lost Meller's Chameleon, appeared. He was behind me, to the right, on the ground, between my filing cabinet and a table. His nose was covered with spider webs and when I bent over to pick him up he tried to bite me. He didn't seem very malnourished or dehydrated. Good think I don't keep the lid on the cricket box on too tight!

He had been missing over a month!

Melvin has been taken out of the free range environment for now and immediately ate some crickets and meal worms.

Thanks for your great article.
