Gutloading meal worms

[Mueller23]

I currently feed my chameleon strictly gutloaded and dusted crickets. I would like to start feeding him mealworms though and know that they aren't too nutritious. How would you gutload a meal worm?

also, if I were to feed chameleon superworms, could he eat it, since he's about 4 inches long (not including tail)

my cham never liked mealwors even when he was lttle. but hes always loved supers, since they are worm shaped they seem to go down pretty easy as long as they are not obnoxiously big for him

i use bug burger, some fresh greens, some dandelion greens, and some carrot and sweet potato, they munch it like all the other feeders (other than silks, and horns, they eat mulberry instead)

i use oatmeal as their bedding...

They will eat anything your crickets will, but have to be fed less watery items like vegetables because too much moisture in the mealworm culture will result in dust mites infesting.

Quick question, where do you buy the "bug burger" ?

Thanks guys! This advice sounds really good! I'm gonna try it pretty soon!
