Some say that it is important to feed your roaches a high protein diet. What would be a good source of that? Ive heard dog food, but ive also heard that could be bad for your Chameleon.
when i first got my whole setup, I got the cage and supplements from chameleonsonly.com and they sent the rep cal multi vit, and the D3. and then miner-all o also. Ive had it in my head from day one that the mineral o was my calcium supp, since it says "no D3". Luckly i got to doing more...
I kindof cut back a little bit on the food (bigger crickets of course). But my guy is pretty active and wants more and more. I try to get him 10 or more medium crickets a day. Thats probably not enough if he had a say. I do the D3 once a week, and multi vit once a week. Regular calcium 2-3 times...
My guy always hates the misting. Maybe its just the site of the sprayer, cause if i get close he tries to fight and bite. I try to leave enough water stuck to the top of the screen of his cage, so that he can see it dripping and go up there and lick it off.
its about time to start cutting back on the vitamins and D-3. I have a six month old, and i only D-3 and Vitamin once a week. I will soon cut that down to every other week.
Ive been using Miner-all o for the past few months as my main duster. And of course i use Rep Cal herptivite and D3 also. Im just wondering what is in the Miner-all o? Is it mainly Calcium? Should i be using Rep Cal Calcium, does the Miner-all o cut it? What do you guys use?
oh yeah, if you are cup feeding, make it tall enough they cant get out. Your cham will have no problem going down into it to get them. Make sure there is something close enough to hang off of into the cup.
i like to make sure mine eats eats and eats. I hear that is fine upto around 6 months of age. Example 15-25 small ones a day. When they are big enough, you can cut it back. They will be eating bigger crickets then also, so they wont need as many. Throw in some worms regularly also.
Do i need to continue to use distilled water for misting and dripping, or can filtered tap water work? I ask this because i do have a filter on my kitchen sink, but i dont think it removes chlorine.
