Hey congrats,
You should get some pinhead crickets or fruitlflies for them,
And keep them all in a cage seperated from the big chams,
im no expert with alot of babies but this is what Ive heard from others with new baby chams, ask reptimom i think thats her username,
she know rudis chams quite well and some other people also know quite alot.

Good luck.

Congrats on the babies!

You are lucky the Senegal didn't eat the babies. Their care is somewhat different....for one thing.

Why are you keeping a Senegal in with a rudis anyhow?? Don't you have a third chameleon too...if so, is it in with them??
