He would be fine for 2-3 days without food. You can always try to feed him some veggies or fruit too. My veiled male likes to eat anything, including small children.

See ya,

He will be fine. Healthy chameleons can go a long time without food. Just next time when you see you're running low go buy more.

Feed him some fruit and veggies like Todd said. Today my veileds ate tiny slivers of apple. Most veileds like fruit and veggies.

hey Jann,,
do you think that it is important to get them started on fruits and veggies at a relatively young age, to have them eat them later?

thanks,, lisa

I would offer him different things now and see what he likes. Bea already eats all fruits and veggies offered.
