At what age will a veiled start eating plants

[Cmoore]

Just curious about when a veiled chameleon will start to eat on plants. I was thinking if getting Spike (2 mo) a lovely flowering indoor hibiscus bush for his enclosure - but will wait if he would'nt start munching on it yet... He's not being spoiled at all!

there is no particular age they start, they will eat plants when/if they want to.

No telling. Some of my veileds started eating vegetables 7 days from hatching, and some never.

I recently put a hibiscus in with my 4 month old in his new enclosure and he started eating it almost immediately. I keep finding leaves with bite marks out of them! Before that he had an umbrella plant and pothos and he didn't touch them. He also gets veggies that he doesn't eat, but he loves the hibiscus salad
