    I say no!! One of the most traumatic experiences of my life-I had 20 beautiful baby Jackson's chameleons painstakingly raised with fruitflies, etc. for a month and put outside in a bare screen cage for a little sun (dappled shade). Fifteen minutes later I returned to the cage swarmed with ants, and all of the chams twitching and dying slowly. Lost them all

    Oh well that's sad! At least you learned from it, if that's any consolation

    Monkey Business that's so sad, darn ants. And for the OP some ants around here will allow the colony to have more then one Queen so you wouldn't want to make a mistake and put a queen in there by accident because if she wasn't eaten there is a great chance she would lay eggs in your viv. That wouldn't be good because she can start a whole new colony on her own. The carpenter ant I know will allow one and wont accept another if the queen is killed and they will eventually die off because they live for the eggs. This is how I lost my colony, I was cleaning the tank one day and I squished the queen by accident. They carried her dead body around for days and within about a month they all died off. I would have to agree with Monkey Business that's it may not be worth the risk.

    It is looking fearful that red eyes frogs are eating the ants with their long attacked tongue and ants are useless to runaway. Green colors of the frog are fine that on ultius review pages of the YouTube have videos but red eyes looking so much ugly.
