Does anybody have any suggestions for some cool bugs to feed to my chameleon? I'm looking to spice his feeders up.

giant green banana roaches. They are a bit bigger than a cricket, can climb, and the males can fly pretty good.
If you get normal size green banana roaches, they will breed pretty quickly. Giants might take a good 6 months or more to get a colony.

There are so many.
If you have space for them:
grasshoppers, katydids, and stickbugs are all great.
Others that don’t need quite as much space as the above:
Snails, isopods, harlequin beetles/grubs, variety of roach and cricket species, BSFL/flies, hornworms/moths, silkworms/moths, bottle flies, wax worms/moths, mealworms/beetles, super worms/beetles, bees(if you have access to a hive), earwigs(yup, these can be bred in a colony lol), uhhhh am I forgetting anything?

Mostly feed him bsf larvae, crickets and hornoworms as a treat. Sometimes dubias, but I don't always have them.

Try pupating worms and larvae/spikes into moths and flies, red runner and green banana roaches, what was listed before, etc!
