I going to be on Christmas break from college and i am driving back home which is a 2 hr drive and wanted to take my cham with me. I live in MN and right now its about 5 to 10 below 0 out! I wanted to know your guys opinion on the best way on transporting them. I have been looking on some past threads and they say putting them in a shoe box with with some paper towels and a most rag possibly, so they the came will fall asleep on the ride home. and wont even remember it. i was wondering if thats the best way or i have a smaller tank i could put him in also but then you have to worry about him falling and etc... Whats your guys opinion?
Another ? is it normal for a cham to eat roots of a plant? When i fed him today i fed him 3 large crickets which he eat those as soon as they where in the cage. I usually feed him about 10 small but the cricket and some repti worms. The size of the small crickets have shrunk even smaller than normal and he seem to not like them ones because i put some in their and ignored them. So when he was done eating the 3 bigger ones he ignored the small crickets and the repti-worms i had in a cup and stated "hunting" for more i think. He went to the base of the ficus and started eating the roots of the plant. Which leads me to think that he thinks that they are super worms. I give 1 to 2 of them a day as a teat because he loves them! After i seen him do that i held a super worm in front of him and ran to it and eat it instantly. Was he thinking the roots where worms and is that normal?
My cham is around 5-7 months old now and seems to be eating alot and wanting more food, if he like the big crickets how many should he be eating?
Thanks for your help!
