When can I feed superworms?

[hurtonchamo]

My chameleon is about 6 months old and I just ordered small superworms. I got them today and they look a little big...about 1 inch to 1 1/4 inch long. Is that OK to feed to a 6 month old? Also wondering if you dust the worms with calcium? My chameleon does not seem to want to eat crickets right now.

They should be fine. What kind of a cham do you have?

Yeah, what kind of chameleon? I just had a vision of a pygmy trying to tackle a super.

Now that would be a sight. Let's hope he has a veiled or panther.

He is a veiled. The supers look big though.

A 6 month old veil should be able to handle any size superworm with no problems.
