Bowl feeding

[paulywally]

For some reason my chameleon will not eat anything out of a bowl. It will walk over and look then walk away can anyone help me with a resolution???

Is this with one type of feeder or with all?

Some of my chameleons will not eat out of a feeder bowl, they are attracted to movement to eat. Have you tried a feeder run or a shooting gallery?

Are the bugs in your feeder moving? And has your cham recently been bitten by a bug, because that could cause them to become scared of that bug for a little.

I have been having a similar-ish problem and I was told that my chameleon could be to cold or about to shed which can result in the loss of appetite.

My guy hasn't been bitten that I am aware of. My bugs to move in the lunch log that I have, I watch him in his little 'chamera' and will see the movement in the lunch log and he will come near the feeder run and then pick off a few of the bugs in there.

This is also true . Just keep monitoring him and playing detective.
