Panther chameleons are insectivores, which means that only live insects should be fed to them. Panther chameleons eat Crickets, silkworms, hornworms, butterworms, dubia roaches, and superworms, which are some of the best feeder insects available.

They give your chameleon plenty of places to hide and feel protected. This will aid in the reduction of stress and the prevention of stress-related disorders.

Chameleons exclusively consume plant water drops. Sure, drops form on artificial leaves, but what could be more natural than droplets of freshwater forming on fresh green leaves?

The humidity of the cage is maintained by live plants. Plants that breathe assist to keep the air from being too dry, which is especially important during the winter. Panther chameleons also eat plants, vegetables, fruit, and leaves.
