Hey!!! You are on my Instagram!!!!! I’ve been hand feeding the hornworms and he’s been getting them down just fine! Lol if I set the worm on the branch it grabs on for dear life and Yoshi about rips it in half. So I just hand feed now !!
@KamaKamaChameleon! I just started keeping mine in the fridge. When I take them out they shed and eat a ton lol. Keeping them cold definitely does help :)
Hand feeding has helped me a lot with my chameleon. He slowly but surely started to come around. But, he has his days. Oh boy does he have his days ha. He will hiss and let me know he isn’t in the mood (usually when he’s shedding)
This was the night I panicked. His enclosure was shut so I KNEW he didn’t get out. But, I couldn’t find him. He’s only ever slept on the vines. Finally, I saw him. Twisted and blended into one of the plants! What an interesting way to sleep!

My hornworms are not anywhere close to being huge yet. So maybe I don’t need to clip them but I hate to see how big they are on a fully grown worm!!! Ahh! Maybe for now I won’t clip them :)
Does anyone else clip off the hornworms mandibles right before feeding to your chameleons? I do! And also before feeding to my bearded dragon. I can’t remember where I read it, but this lady said her female adult Cham was choking on a hornworm because the hornworm had bit and latched onto the...
How is this possible?!!! Boy they sure do grow fast! Can anyone guess his age when he was tiny? The company I bought him from online said 2-3 months old. But he was just sooooo tiny! I’m leaning more towards 2 months then which would mean he’s 5 months old now. He’s just now starting to getting...
You did an amazing job! I saw the post but all the photos are blocked so I can’t see them! But I’m wanting to build one for my veiled and I think I can get a pretty good idea of how to on these photos here! Thank you!
