cham and the lady bug

[APBMM veil charm]

Is it OK for chameleons to eat lady bugs ?

 

[chameeeleon]

No, ladybugs, like many other brightly colored insects, are toxic when eaten.

They secrete a bad tasting poison, birds wont even eat them.

Lady bugs are all over my apartment and they are my little buddies. My hibiscus had a bunch of little aphids on it and the lady bugs were eating them all off the plant They only stay in my living room for some reason so I dont need to worry about them going to my reptile room and even if they did get in that room they are too fat to fit through the screen
