Types of Food Approved for Veiled Cham

[Haven27]

Insects:

-crickets (my main feeder)
-dubia roaches (weekly, but not many)
-super worms (none, I'm not sure if he is big enough)
-silk worms (none tried yet, and he's not that thin so he doesn't really need them)
-hornworms (none tried yet)

Fruits/Veggies:

-Apple pieces
-carrot pieces
- romaine lettuce pieces
-mango
-papaya
-strawberries
-raspberries

I haven't offers MoJo any fruits or veggies just yet, but I'm eager to try. Any successes out there with fruits and veggies?

I gave my veiled some kale not to long ago. I tore it into about nickle size pieces. I only gave him the leaf part on not the stem part. He ate it all. I don't know if a lot of fruit is good for them. Fruit has a lot of acid in it and that can cause a lot of digestive problems with animals that are not meant to eat them. I am not sure how a veileds system reacts to a lot of fruit but I know it can be very bad to other animals like sulcata tortoise.

I'm sure they're not meant to be a daily food. I just read those are some options inside a book about veiled cham care. I haven't tried offering MoJo any fruit or veggies yet...

He does seem to enjoy the super worms now that I've tried them for him though!

Mine like Kale. Kale also has a lot of vitamins in it.
