i got a few pumpkins growing in pots outside noticed they are starting to die i was wondering if i can put them in with my baby chameleon. right now i have a pothos and a roebelinii palm. the palm is only there till the pothos starts to grow but figured the extra pumpkin vines would be nice too

I honestly think the vines and fruits even will irritate the chameleons. They seem to be very rough and have a type of "urticating hair" that is even irritating to human skin.

I really wouldn't do it
 
i was thinking the same thing as well as i know what you mean about it being irritating i cant touch the vines without getting itchy or having to wash my hands after. oh well it was just a idea maybe ill set up a little grow box or something for them it grow in with less light trying to get some carving pumpkins for halloween

Could always just do a little terrarium with only the pumpkin plants if you wanted, I have several terrariums with just plants and no animals.
