I am thinking of getting a pygmy chameleon! But i have a few questions:

I have read they can live in a glass tank-vertical yay or nay

what do you feed the lil critters?

Can i take it around my hose and let it eats flys?

What kind of pygmy chameleons are available as pets? All i have read about is the bearded...

Websites help!

1. Yes you can keep them in glass tanks, vertical or horizontal (I use both)
2. They eat small crickets (<1/4") mostly and other tiny prey
3. No, flies are too big for them and they don't do well with handling
4. Bearded (brevs) are far and away the most commonly available but temporalis and spectrals are out there too.
5. Great caresheet: http://chameleonnews.com/05DecRouthouska.html

Love pygs! Feel free to ask more questions if you have them
