What do chameleons eat?

Chameleons are primarily insectivores, feasting on a variety of live insects such as crickets, dubia roaches, silkworms, and hornworms. Some species, like veiled chameleons, may occasionally eat plant matter, but a diet rich in gut-loaded insects is key to their health.

How often should I feed my chameleon?

Most juvenile chameleons should eat once or twice daily, while adults typically eat every other day. However, feeding frequency may vary based on species, activity level, and body condition.

How much do chameleons eat a day?

Juveniles typically eat around 10 to 20 appropriately sized insects per day. Adults usually consume about a dozen large insects every other day. Superworms, which are higher in fat, should be fed in moderation.

Do chameleons only eat live food?

Yes, chameleons rely on live, moving prey to trigger their natural hunting instincts. While some may occasionally nibble on plant matter, live insects should make up the majority of their diet.
