simple, safe, and baby Mary approved cup feeder

[little leaf]

I am babysitting baby Mary ( Laurie's little Quad, she is so cute!!! ) but - LOL - I am a nervous wreck, there is nothing wrong- but you all know how it is so I was so worried she was not catching enough food- ( but I am sure she was - she is looking quite fat and happy now ) but I watched the feeders- what do they do, where are they going - and mostly - I dont want to just feed the cage floor - lol - I made this "thing" - the pinheads seem pretty much to stay in it - and as you can see- she also approves, now I am happy , and so is she
she checks it out, decides its ok - and then feeds from it
( sorry about the last cruddy pic, I REALLY need a new camera ~ )

this is just a shish kabob cut in half, poked threw a suction cup with a bit of screen added, and suctioned on the bottom of a tiny 2 oz deli cup - its raining outside today - so lets see what else I can invent today - perhaps a automatic mosquito feeder ~ LOL

That feeder cup is great. Little Mary is such a doll, all one gram of her. I still wonder if she will ever grow. But living with you I am sure she will do great. Look you get to have a quad after all. I could never get her to feed from a cup - how many days did it take you!!

She is so cute!

And your feeder is very inventive.

HA! That's great! Inventing things for chameleons is so rewarding.

She is so cute! I feel like I am missing something obvious, but what is the point of the suction cup?

so it stays tight so the chams can walk/lean on it, then so you can take it out to clean it - and toss the cup when it gets dirty, and it just happen to fit the first one I glued in , but it sat funny, and the crix could not get a grip on the glue once it got hard to climb the stick - so I just did it that way, and I have lots of those suction things- they come w/ the plants for the viv/ but I didn't use them
