Since our Chams can eat other lizards, would you be able to put a backyard anole lizard in their enclosure and see what happens? I’m not planning to do it just wondering.

Yea that’s what I thoughtYou could, and it would likely be eaten... but you risk potentially introducing parasites or disease from the wild anole.
I try lolAnd this thread title is hilarious...
What if he bought a anole from a pet store and the Anole is clean of parasites and healthy would the chameleon be good for the goI would not.

Sound about right but ama try to feed my Cham somthing difrent lol am sure he’ll find it interesting and I got pet insurance lolI wouldn't assume its clear of parasites because it came from the pet store - the pet store is probably ground zero for parasite transmission. Chameleons have been observed to eat other small lizards and birds in the wild so its certainly edible.
I purchase anoles/geckos from mealworms.com to use as feeders occasionally. My chameleon doesn’t eat them right away. They’ll last months sometimes, but eventually they disappear. I assume he got hungry enough. I know I run the risk of parasites, but they are a “feeder” company, and my chameleon is very robust and healthy. I think it’s worth the risk for myself, but wild feeders are a different risk.
I've wondered about them. They say they're B grade, so I was hesitant to try them out. How many times have you done this?
Off topic but here in PA I have salamanders that live with my chameleon outside lol. Everyday they're there.
Because no-name picked a good spot! Every now and then the skies open and the bug god rains roaches and moths from the sky!
I feed wild insects, moths, mantis, grasshoppers from time to time, with no problems
It's funny to think about it like this!
Where do you find them? I can’t seem to find any bugs in Texas that aren’t wasps lolI feed wild insects, moths, mantis, grasshoppers from time to time, with no problems
