I put moe in the bigger cage. He went from 36 inches high and 18 inches square to 36 inches high and wide and 18 inches deep. I used the same plants and added a ficus tree and some fake vines. I am hoping that this will snap him out of his little attitude that he has aquired. I said before that he slowed down eating but if I offer him a super worm it is gone before I can blink. So it sounds like he is bored with crickets and I will have to get him some wax worms or something for a little while. Will he snap out of this pickiness and which would be better wax worms or mealies? His color remained calm when I put him in the bigger cage so i think he will acclimate well. Thanks for all the suggestions in the earlier post.

Try completely eliminating crickets from his knowledge for a month. But I wouldn't use superworms. Try roaches or silkworms and feed them instead for a while. I've had chameleons get spoiled to supers and it was hard to get them to eat anything else. But once I cut out crickets completely and offered other things for 3-4 weeks, they would take crickets again. It was like a fresh new food item then.
