Thank you to everyone for all of the input. I will continue to take advice from various websites, various breeders, and the many keepers I speak with. But realize I can not trust every site and all of the information given. There is no one set way to do everything. Different breeders I see throughout the US and world, all have their own way of doing things. If a breeder has been feeding their chameleons strawberries or something else for their entire career, then I do not believe my chameleon can not have them. We are learning more and more each day about chameleons. Some information 20 years ago may not be entirely correct today. Not sure about all breeds, but so far, for years, my veileds have had no issues with the certain fruits and vegetables they enjoy snacking on and they have not had any issues either. So when my boy wakes up and wants to munch on his succulent, he will, it is a great source of moisture for him and he enjoys the one type he eats and looks for. If any are interested in cucumber or watermelon, they can have it in moderation. The fruits, vegetables, and plants they have been offered since they were young, they will continue to be offered. The panther, even though offered, has no interest, but will still be offered. Again, thank you for your input and the informational site that I can also gather information on along with other sites and videos breeders post and use. Much appreciated.
"There are many more types of insects chameleons will eat depending on what they can catch and what is available where they are located.
Larger chameleons will also eat different
types of small lizards, small birds, and even tree-climbing rodents if they can catch them.
There are other chameleons, like veiled chameleons, known to include plant material into their diet.
In the wild, those chameleons might supplement their diet of insects, with tender leaves on trees or plant shoots.
They have also been known to eat berries.
When it comes to veiled chameleons, eating plants or even flowers gives them the chance to absorb water, which is scarce in their desert habitat."
