Silkworms always hit the favorites for all my insectivores, but closely followed for my chams are isopods and black soldier flies. Hornworms always make a happy chameleon for my panther, but I don't get them often because I can't breed them easily and feeding the freshly hatched ones makes me wants to gag. I have found the freshly hatched ones do best on the chow (unless eating the normal foods that aren't good for our little ones), but switching them when they are about half an inch long isn't hard. However feeding them and making the hornworms chow makes me want to vomit so bad. I usually treat Ryker to them on his hatch day, and when I like to try to have them on hand when he's had a few bad days in a row. I always have silkworms on hand so it makes it easier to wait a couple days for hornworms to shipped.

Silkworms for most, the female parsons favourite is stick insects, sadly the picky panther loves morio but I don't feed them for obvious reasons, the jacksons goes nuts for waxworm moths, wish I could get more flying things for them and chocolate cake.. oh wait .. that's me.

Why do you paint them? And why only the ladies? Don't you think that's sexist of your chameleon !?

As of right now, bsfl (could care less for the flies) and superworms. I've never seen a chameleon move so fast to snag a super.

DZ goes nuts over Black Soldier Flies and he loves supers. Dubia, silks, and hornworms he eats but not as greedily.
Hansel was stuck on the wax worms(ANYTHING to get him to eat at first) but is now loving the Silk worms. He is even eating the dubia now. He's not a fan of supers.

Just to prove my point....I just released about 8 flies into DZ's cage, well, tried to release anyway. 4 were on the lid, I didn't even have time to shake them off before he snagged all of them. And the ones in the container I was trying to get to fly out, he went after and accidentally got an empty shell along with a fly. He does not wait until I say "OK" like my dogs do, he's more like a toddler.

It's so cute to watch them hunt. Nikolai does this swaying thing, and then peers down his nose at the food before snagging it.
