Pygmy cham food

[andy321]

I am considering getting a pygmy chameleon and was wondering if they would eat cultered flies like the ones you feed to dart frogs.

yeah that and pinhead crickets

cool another question would a 29 gallon tank be good for a group of 3 or 4 bearded pygmy chameleons

yes. as long as there is enough space to get out of sight and claim territories. ur gonna have to make about 2 seperate basking areas for them to split and dont get more that one male.

Fruit flies and pinhead crickets would be great for baby and young pygmy chameleons but once mine get older these items are far to small for them. I feed my pygmys 1/4 inch crickets, tiny silkworms and the occasional moth and even more occasional wax worm.

Pygmys are renowned for not liking worms and sometimes not taking them.
