hello CF

so im getting a cham in about a month (veiled or panther)

I will have a bin set up for crickets
and a 3 shelve plastic container for worms ( horn, super and silks )
I will be buying some rapashy CP so i dont have to use different powders.

Now my question is how often do i feed him?
everyday? every other day?
also do i dust the crickets and or worms in the powder every feeding?
and one last thing! what is cup feeding and how do i do it?
thanks also if anyone has guide to keeping those three worms alive id like that

Hello and welcome!
For feeding schedule, it depends on the age of your cham.
If a baby under 6 months, every day.
Over six months, every day or every other day ( most do every day, but I know my veiled stopped eating every day around this age)
For dusting with repashy (btw, great choice) I use it on every feeding of his staple feeders. (do it even if feeding daily)
For horns, make sure you dont run out of their food! they go through a ton of my silk chow i got from mulberryfarms.com
I bought 500 eggs from them and they eat like champs, jsut waiting for them to get big enough to feed off.
Cooler temps will keep your horns smaller. they grow super fast, dont put them in fridge, but just keep them in a cool spot.
