loss in appetite
i have a male veiled cham about 5 month old he used to eat well but now has had a sudden loss of appetite.
he used to eat 15 to 20 feeders a day and now will only take around 5 i know they slow down on their eating as they get older but i didnt think it would be this soon. i try to vary his food i give him brown and black crickets locusts mealworms and the occational waxworm the only thing he seems interested in is the worms but he cant survive on those as a primary diet i just use them to treat him. his contitions have not changed in anyway any suggestions will be appreciated. |

Start feeding him every other day. They get bored with their food if it's in there all the time. Give him the same amount every other day that you'd be feeding every day (10). I feed mine every other day and I give my all that he wants on his day to eat. Jann
