Can Baby Chameleons Eat Very Small Dubias?

[Mitcchar]

Now I don’t have a baby chameleon, and I’m planning on getting a 3 month old male veiled. But I do currently have a colony of dubia roaches so that I know I have enough food for the cham once I eventually get one. In the colony, I have noticed that when they are born, they are very very tiny, and as the name suggests I was wondering if a baby chameleon would be able to eat these small of dubias? This was just a question I have been pondering, so just I was just wondering if anyone has tried this before?

I have discoid roaches and and told that they are very similar to dubia. When my discoids are newly born, they are definitely tiny enough for a 3 month old chameleon. However, always go by the rule of anything bigger than the space between the chameleon’s eyes is too big for it to eat.

I second that! The only bug that would be hard to find small enough for a 3 month old would be a hornworm since those grow so fast.
