[ColorCham427]

My Sambava hasn't eaten a cricket all day today. And at the most he ate 1 yesterday! hes only a little over 6 months of age so he needs to be eating! I think im going to switch up gutloads.. im gunna try cricketfood.com... right now i can only hope he takes silkworms!

The gutloads I have been using are - Kale, Sweet potatoe, Apple, Orange, Carrot, and bee pollen.

What does his diet consist of? How often have you been feeding crickets? Some chameleons will get tired of eating them, and may or may not continue to eat them again in a later time. The next best things are roaches, ro silkworms. If the worms dont work, you may have a problem! Let us know how he does...

Thanks,

I am sure you know by now but just in case you don't Chams don't eat very much right before a shed. Is it possible that he is just about to shed?

Yeah thats what i was thinking.. only his color isnt really "fading" nor "whiter" so idk...

2moro im def going to offer him 6 small silkworms and a couple small hornworms.. after he refuses to take crix.
