Switching Cham from Dubia only diet

[Captive Creations]

I have a new female and her previous owner only gave her dubia and she does seem interested at all with crickets, meal worms big or small. anyone have any advice? she is a 18 month old veiled chameleon. living in canada dubia are not sold anywhere and I still have yet to find anyone who will ship to canada because of the bylaws so when the ones that came with her run out I might be in hot water if I cant get her to eat crickets or something does anyone have advice on introducing new feeders to full grown chams who seems stuck in her ways thanks

try some silkworms or hornworms. most chams go nuts for em. just keep trying with the crix. do you cupfeed or free range feeders?

I have been trying both. she gets a couple crix a day in there and I take them out at the end of te day and try again the next day. I also try hand feeding and cup feeding with her but she hasnt gone for them anyway I try it. I am going to take drive to the pet store and grab a few horn worms is there anything else I should grab too. my local pet shop sells: crickets, Meal worms, Super worms (large meal worms), butter worms, horn worms silk worms, and wax worms oh an flightless fruit flies.

Either breed dubias like the other user said or buy hornworms, silkworms, and butterworms.
