So, I know you aren't supposed to give your cham a lot of mealworms because of the hard to digest skin, and it's best to wait until they have just shedded before using them. BUT, how do you get them to shed?? Aren't you supposed to keep them in the fridge? If they are alseep they can't really shed can they? I've had mine out of the fridge a few days to get them to shed, but nothing...
What do I do?
 
people keep them in the fridge so they wont turn into beatle.....they will shed as the rown and form...just wait
 
Well you also want to be gutloading them.

I'd reccomend taking 1 dozen or so out and keeping them warm and feeding nutritious gutload(they do need to be kept dry for the most part so keep that in mind). They should molt and then can be fed out and replaced with the ones in the fridge.
