I got him as a surprise gift from my uncle. I found out he got him from LLL reptiles. He knew i wanted a "chameleon with spikes" to which i was referring to a jacksons lol. He was like "here he is" and i was like that ain't no jacksons lol. I make it sound funny but it was actually a bit...
Living in a deserty place has its perks ?. It does the temp drop for me. Winters can get scary tho since they can get to 13 degrees here, on average itd be around 37-46 degrees tho.
I actually got very lucky and ended up getting this species tho because i was looking at montanes since they...
About 7 months almost 8 now i think. Yeah he's coolio. It's almost his bday (that i assigned) so he's getting a cage upgrade as a gift haha. He's getting a dragon strand ?
Had him out for a few minutes to explore around my room since he seemed bored after he ended up hunting down every baby mantis in his cage yesterday. He ended up getting curious over a water bottle and went to pick a fight with it. He lost.
I've never gut loaded bsfl because like i said feeding em makes em grow faster ime. Also since you asked about a source for bsfl, you can try mulberry farms.

Its known as the silkworm place but they really sell a variety of worms. I get my hornworms,silkworms, and...
The only real why I know to extend their larval state is to not feed them at all. They don't need to be fed to grow so any extra food you give em just makes em grow faster. You technically CAN store them in a cool area and it'll slow down their growth but its a bit tricky because you kind of...
Yeah it's safe as they aren't too big for your chameleon. The last thing you want is your chameleon tugging on a hornworm with a deathgrip on a plant which ends up hurting your chameleons tongue. If the size is right then feel free to throw em in there
Since you barely got him 2 days ago chances are that this is just him being stressed out about being in a new home. Which is normal and goes away after they get comfy to their new home. Chameleons take a few days to get used to their new home, my guy took like a week and a half to get used to...
Here are a few ones from rn. And in this link there are some more pics from 2 days ago incase these end up helping you see whatever you're checking for https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/windy-day-sunshine.175546/
Also oh okay I got ya.
No like he just doesn't have interest in any feeder at all unless they are super active or look like they're scared of him as in trying to run away. He just legit doesn't care for feeders unless he can hunt it or if he sees that they show him fear. It's just how he is, it's why I use flying...
I just took a pic to make it easier. I use the normal without d3 calcium every feeding except when I feed him bsfl. I give him the multivitamin and d3 calcium once a month. Maybe the bsfl with the dusting is too much calcium? Or maybe it really was him wanting the ant off, I love how one option...
