Chameleon food question

[Mandy]

Ok I was just reading a chameleon care sheet site I happened across. It stated something about the larger species that I had not heard before.
It said that you can feed larger species like mellers, etc . feeder anoles...
I have never heard this before and it truthfully sounds a bit off. So I thought I would see if anyone else had heard such a thing, or if anyone had personal experience with it.

Larger species such as mellers and some large veileds can eat prey such as anoles and pinkies. It's not recommended as a staple though because of the high fat content of these prey items. We feed primarily crickets with superworms, meal worms, wax worms and silk worms offered as treats to add variety to their diet. Chameleons are known to go off feed if offered only one prey item.

Hope this helps,

i dont see it so far off mandy i've seen photos of chameleons eating other chameleons before so it sounds believeable but i wouldnt make it a staple diet...
