my newborn baby jacksons chameleons do not really eat they will notice the fruit flies and just look at them they wont even try to eat them. occasionally i have seen them eat maybe once or twice but now they just ignore them. i also tried mini mealworms and they seem uninterested in those. They are drinking fine but i want to make sure they eat well.

How newborn are they?

new born babies wont eat for a few days after hatching/ being birthed because they are still full of the nutrients from the egg yoke.
