Rather go for silkworms, they have an almost 1:1 ratio of phosphorous : Calcium and thats what you want. As said meal worms are hard to digest and don't have great nutritional value. And it has been argued that they are sometimes still alive inside the cham and may damage it internally but I...
Yup but in the off season so shapeless really, I find it weird that guys who have chams don't gym...is that a rule? should I give up one of my passions?haha
Thanks for the suggestion, it might not be vary apparent in the pix but there are two branches at different levels in the cage but wrapped in leafy vines, there are also some grape vines running across on tree different levels, he spends all his time in the front of the cage in the sun on the...
Just rearranged the plants bought some new ones and put up the misting/watering....the easy no hassle way. Cant believe it is so easy and I worried so much about getting the misting/watering right.

Ok I havent done anything just got it... going to put everything in there, getting some great ideas now, It is only an outside cage it is going to be sleeping in another cage at night... well here is the raw product with me to put it in scale...
HAAAAAAAAA! At long last!!! I've waited so long and its comming NOW it'l be here in ONE HOUR, but then I'm leaving for the weekend so wont be able to put my cham in it right now
