What is the best leaf plant for a veiled Cham to eat? Had a veiled about 15 years ago and daughter just got one for the grandson. Today I went and got a plastic plant with broadleaves for water to drip on so he could drink, and he immediately tried to eat the leaves. So I'm presuming he's wanting some leaves. Also I read they like buds so which budding, leafy plant do you suggest? This sights awesome, wish I would have had something like this back then!
