Too skinny?

My panther chameleon yoshi has only been eating about 3-5 crickets every other day. I can’t seem to get him to eat more. I noticed he has lost a lot of weight and I want to know if it’s getting to an u healthy point.

He doesn’t appear to be too skinny, but more pics will help. Rapid weight loss, unless intentional, warrants a vet visit. Do you actually know he’s lost weight, or are you just going by looks?
 
3-5 crickets every other day seems like a solid appetite for a panther that is near adulthood. And visually from that one pic he doesn't look too skinny. How old is your cham?

Best way to know for certain is to actually weigh your chameleon. Chameleons are known to make themselves appear skinnier than they actually are to deter predators. Same thing with making themselves appear bigger.
