    Chameleon no staple diet

    You don't need to feed variety in everyday- just overall variety. If you were to pick maybe 5 prey choices, that would be fine. Those could be crickets, silkworms, superworms, roaches as your most often offered, and rotate the fifth choice (terrestrial isopods, hornworms, snails, blue bottle...

    Urgent Help! Superworms

    You dont have to gutload anything - but you should. Superworms can be gutloaded, they just dont have the capacity of things like crickets and roaches. not recommended for supers to be staples. Indeed I would suggest the word staple be eliminated from your (meaning anyone's) routine. Have...

    Urgent Help! Superworms

    not poisonous, but also not very nutritious. Worry not. Just gutload better nexttime and dont offer too many of them (i suggest keep supers and mealworms under 20% of total diet)

    Gutloading

    youre welcome yes they will eat most peel, although typically peels are not recommended. some are high in oxalic acid, many are likely to have pesticide residue, some have limited nutritional value.

    HELP! Panther Chameleon Has Eye Closed

    How are you gutloading those larva? its a pretty limited diet. You don't need D3 every day, assuming your lighting provides UVB, so it could be an imbalance between D and vitamin A. Reducing the D and a temporary increase in A might help. he doesn't look too thin. How long since his last...
