Earthworms, grasshoppers, caterpillars, silkworms, houseflies, pill bugs, green beetles, and small birds depending on the size of the chameleon. I’m eating here leave me alone!! FOREVER

  6. what are chameleons defenses? • Chameleons may fight other chameleons if their living space becomes too crowded. Sometimes they bite and even kill each other. Normally, a threat display is enough to make one chameleon give in to another. The fighting chameleon puffs up their bodies and throat pouches and arch their backs, rocking to fro with a hiss. Often they rise up onto their back legs to frighten each other. They are not LIZARDS! They are their own species!
