silks are a good feeder but they are lowfat and do not contain alot of phosphorus. They are about 6 grams of fat like a cricket but a cricket contains about 4 times the amount of phosphorus from what I have read. you said your chameleon was about a year old right? I would feed 4 or 5 of them and mix a few other feeders in too. I feed my chameleons every other day but when I do, I usually include silks in their diet.
