Feeding is critical for these lizards. They like crickets, wild captive insects such as spiders, butterflies as long as they are smaller than their mouths. this is important if they try to eat something big, they might have serious problems eating or digesting it. Make sure to dust the feeder with calcium powder every two three times. It is recommended to put only a few crickets for food in the tank, as sometimes the tank itself could be a very good place for crickets to breed. This is not good as after sometime you might see hundreds of crickets living in the tank. and it is hard to remove them from the tank.
Crickets are sold at the pet stores. But if you prefer breeding them. It requires a lot of effort. So, it is better to buy them if you have only a few lizards to feed. In Ottawa, PetSmart has good prices. Crickets are low in fat so it should be their main diet. Meal worms should be given sometimes as they are rich in fat. They are also available in pet stores in Ottawa.
