Veiled Chameleon Diet 101 

Whatever you're doing for that chameleon, keep at it! He is one of the prettiest and healthiest looking chameleons I have ever seen!

My 14 old wants a vailed chameleon. Before we say yes I have been binge watching everyone of your videos. Your like a chameleon whisperer. So helpful!!!!

I'm planning on getting a veiled chameleon pretty soon and these videos are genuinely so helpful to me because I cannot find anyone who explains in detail like this!! I have about two pages of notes just from your videos about them on how to take care of them just so I get everything needed for my little guy 😁

May I add Hornworms should only be offered as a treat? They’re chock full of gooey nutrition however overfeeding a chameleon hornworms will result in gout from the high level of protein hornworms provide.

This video couldn’t have come at a better time! Thanks for all the info!

Brand spanking new to veiled chameleon and really appreciate the info. Will be going through more of your videos too. Thanks and have a great weekend!

Veiled chameleons are way out of my league. Great vid! I enjoyed it.

I’m getting a veiled chameleon soon so this was so helpful!!!

Hibiscus is such a nice thing to know! Because I actually grow hibiscus naturally, no pesticides. I love hibiscus and chameleons. I also typically garden lots of the veggies you said I also have apple tries. My future chameleon will definitely be fed proper food.

I'm getting a veiled chameleon on my birthday this month and this was super helpful thank you!

I'm rescuing a veiled chameleon today and this was extremely helpful!

Beautiful chameleon and thanks for the helpful tips! Just got my 1st veiled chameleon and I'm excited for the journey ahead! Liked and subbed!!

Great information, straight to the point! Keep it up!

My Veiled loved green leaf lettuce. Your guy is absolutely gorgeous ! Love the fact he has weight. That plate of food looks like me going to feed the crickets ✌🏻❤

Thanks you answered a bunch of my questions I’m getting my chameleon this Wednesday your pets look so healthy and happy 🤗

I'm taking in a rescued vieled chameleon, and your videos have really helped!

I just rescued a veiled cham yesterday.. I have a beardie.. but I know nothing about chams! Thank you for the clear advice!

I'm getting a veiled chameleon and your channel is amazing! 💖🥰

Me and my partner feed our rescue pied fruits and veggies. Blueberries, apples, carrots and peas are some of his favorites.

i have been looking to get a chameleon and i am doing research on them first and your videos are very helpful thank you 😊

I also have no clue how your not terrified of the bugs!! I hate bugs.... but I am slowly getting over my fear of them since my chameleon needs them 😂

THANK YOU FOR TELLING ME ABOUT THE D3

Your chameleon looks gorgeous. Wow. He's so puffed up and beautiful. Just like my Georgia. The t5 HO uvb linear lights are the best, as is bringing them outside and letting her play in the garden, but I have to stay close.. She gets fed superworms and crickets, both with reptivite.. she also eats her vegetation sometimes inside her terrarium, which is devils ivy, and I just got an umbrella tree and spider plant for her..

Thank u for the detail file on chameleons I was just wondering which to get now

13:49 R.I.P little worm we will remember you as a hero...

I don’t even have any reptiles and I watch everything hahaha 💜

I suggested this :)))))) thank you! I got a rescue chameleon and haven’t found a good source for a guide for his diet so I’ve just been doing salads and crickets

Wow definitely someone to take advice from. He's beautiful and very obviously healthy.

thank you so much this vid helped a lot, our vailed chameleon was not eating the crickets that we gave him so we tried out this and it worked!

I just got a veiled chameleon and I have him in the same room as my python so this will help thank you

I just got a chameleon two days ago and I plan on putting him on a veggie diet, this is my first time owning one so any and all tips if very very helpful

Can I not feed my chameleon crickets? I'm really scared of insects but I can deal with worms and your chameleon looks so beautiful!! This video is so helpful! Back to the insects that the chameleon eats can it eat variety of worms and get enough nutrients and occasionally roaches that you talked about?

My daughter brought home a veiled chameleon. He wasn’t eating, didn’t open his eyes and was losing weight fast. He refused to eat so I started syringe feeding green veggie baby food and wax worms. He has gotten so much better. He moves around, his eyes are open now and he has put on a little weight. I want him to eat on his own now but I do not know how to get him to eat on his own. He will not do it. Any suggestions would be great plz. I have added a potho plant to his enclosure to help keep moisture in. I want to rehome him because my daughter has lost interest. But no one will take him due to not Eating on his own.

Thank you this really helped new subscriber! :)

i might be getting one soon and i’m kind of nervous

Can they eat watercress? I know that leaf is good for hydration but is it safe for them?? EDIT: Thanks for the informative video, great job! I've been looking into buying my 1st one. Been researching for a while now :3

Thank you for your help!

Thank you for the advise! Banba is such a handsom boy! How old is he now?

This video is so helpful

What kind of live plants can I put in my chameleons cage to help with his digestive tract

Oooo do a turtles diet 101 please! That would be so fun to watch :3

should crickets still be included as a daily thing or can they be filled by something else such as greens or different variety of worms?

Thank you so much this really help

At what age/time you recommend to start feeding fruits and veggies to Veiled Chameleons? My baby girl it's almost 2 months now and transition from small crickets to medium size.

i am getting a baby chameleon tomorrow and i was wondering if i could feed them the same thing you have listed,because they are so small

Where do you find the tropical linear bulbs ? And what recommend watts 5.0,10.0,25.0 my chameleon is around 6momths

I just got a chameleon today and I was wondering if they eat the crickets alive or if they want them dead? I saw at the end that his insects were alive but I just want to be 100% sure. Thank you so much!

Thoughts on locusts as food ? Thanks very helpful

I live in Arkansas and we have high humidity naturally, before misting his take is around 55-60. When misting he tank can get up to 80-90% very fast. What can I do about this?

I feel like my veiled chameleon is too small for his age. Why would that be?

Came home from a trip to find my 14 year old had gotten a baby veiled chameleon. Trying to catch up on the care. What was the light bulb you said to use? Can I give her wax worms along with the crickets. Where is the best place on line to get crickets. Can i leave the crickets in the cage with Yoshi?

Awesome Vlog!! I love chameleons!! I don't have one but maybe someday!!

would it be okay to just feed a cham different types of worms because i really really want one but my sister is TERRIFIED of jumping insects

Hello there, do you know a good breeder to get my first veil chameleon or where did you get bamba from?

I have never cared for a chameleon or lizard and I really want one. So if you have any tips on which ones are good for a beginner or any other tips for me that would be really really great!

Is Romaine Lettuce Ok? Just wondering because in your other video you said that it had a lot of hydration. Thank You!

Great vid

My country doesn’t sell mustard, dandelion, collard, and turnip greens what can I feed my veiled chameleon other than those greens

how often should you feed them hornworms? i know feeding them hornworms too often they can get gout

That chameleon is almost as pretty as you 🥰

Do you use a feeder dish? How do you get him to eat his greens??

It's good to use live plants, especially with veiled chameleons, so they can munch on the leaves. Check FL Chams for a safe plant list. Otherwise, focus mostly on insects and use carrots and other veggies to gutload your crickets, etc! Also, the BEST feeder for a chameleon is BSFL because they are chock FULL of calcium.

Hey I just wanted to know what food to get if you could send me the link to the best food to get that you know that would help me out a lot thank you ❤

I heard that feeding super worms is dangerous for chameleons because they can eat through their skin and they are too high in phosphorus... is that true? Or can I still feed super worms

So if the roaches get out of my enclosure will it infest my home ? I mean will it be like as if i brought regular roaches into my house? Serious question by the way..I have been avoiding feeding my chemeleon roaches because i dont want to infest my home with them if they escape.

I only just started looking into chameleons so I won't get one for a while but does this also apply to panther chameleons? Like are there any foods she talks about that Panthers can't eat or are they basically the same diet-wise?

My friend got a baby I believe couple months old can u give some tips ?? Would appreciate it very much!

Is it same for indian chameleon? And you haven't said anything about feeding water. So please tell, how much and how?

How often do chameleons shed and do you have to help them ?

I always offer my Jackson Chameleon veggies but he always wants nothing to do with them. Luckily he isn’t too picky with insects. His favorites are crickets and Dubia roaches. He’ll eat hornworms whenever I offer them and he’ll eat superworms, wax worms, black solider larvae, ect when offer but here and there he’ll turn those down. Luckily I have my own Dubia roach and superworms colony so that helps. I rather not breed crickets so I just buy them in bulk and keep them in an enclosure where they’re fed and taken care of until they all get fed off. I’m also getting a Panther Chameleon soon which is exciting.

When I wash the plants is Ivory soap a good soap to use

Iv just started watching your videos, I had a rescue bearded dragon called Dude.

Can anyone tell me the difference between a yemenchameleon and a veiled one? Can’t find a translation in my country for a veiled chameleon

I’ve tried giving leafy greens or veggies and he doesn’t eat them. I’ve only had my veiled cham for 3 weeks but it’s been much more stressful than anticipated. He is just the biggest scaredy cat and “faints” anytime I mess with his cage so it’s been so hard because I have to get him out when his cage needs cleaning but I’m afraid the stress is going to kill him 😔 Should I keep trying to offer greens in hopes he’ll try it?

Do you have any advice on getting a juvenile veiled chameleon into eating dubias ? I bought some but he just doesn’t seem interested at all :(

I'm shocked your arm doesn't hurt you from keeping it up so long lol

would i be able to do plants(food/veggies) and just worms? i have a thing about roaches and don’t want to buy them, but have no problem with worms!

Where do you buy the wax worms alive? I go to the pet store and they’re always black/dead.

2:07 They can be caught lackin

Am getting mine next Thursday

Where do you get the greens to feed them?

So I’m worried about my chameleon he’s only eating about 4 super worms every other day. Is this normal ?

I posted this question on another one of your videos. But I thought I would ask here too. Okay, so I have the Picture This app. It said that the Golden Pathos is toxic to pets and humans. Google says that you can use it for chameleons. I’m so confused.

Do you need to put calcium on the greens ?

Can you feed your veiled chameleon only fruits and vegetables?

WOW finally all caught up...loved it,see you in the next one ☺💕

Nice one Thank you uk.

Why not bananas ? Jus wondering cause mines eats it weekly every other day

Great video and very informative! Thank you! 😊 Got a question though, my veiled is about 5months old now, pretty good size but I don't think quite full grown. But he is quite defensive when I try to take him out of the cage for cleaning and all that and do you think hand feeding will still work when he's this old? I just don't want him to get pissed everytime 😅 I hand fed him once as a baby, which I should have done more. Think he'll still go for it?

so you can or can not feed him lettuce/cabbage

I actually heard that Kales and Bananas are safe for Chameleons even though you said you do not recommend. Can you or someone else confirm?

FYI Your coupon code REPTILIAN GARDEN Is invalid

where do you buy different insects. I only have PetSmart and Petco around me but there always out of stock

Thanks!

What if variety’s of insects are scarce in your town? I’m scared to try online shipping but if someone like you recommended a site I’d try it because all I can get is crickets and their tiny

Should I give it freeze-dried insects?

will they eat freeze dried crickets?

Can this diet be used for a panther chameleon?

Today sir we have this lovely salad topped with bugs and dusted with calcium powder.
