...being able to care for the crickets so I got him a wide variety of worms such as mealworms, super worms, butter worms and I also got him calciworms(black soldier fly worms) as a substitute for him not having crickets. Every day was stressful because Arlo turned out to be super picky and...

...intake though. I work long hours and have my husband spray and water when I'm gone but lil dude seems to only drink for me....any ideas? I've been feeding him wax worms to help with lack of water intake but am thinking of switching to calciworms. Any tips or ideas to help him recover quicker?

Use calciworms if she is eating.

Fruitfies mabye. Calciworms and waxworms may help too.

Calciworms=Phoenix worms=black soldier fly larvae. Very nutritious addition. There are larger ones you can order, but they're all relatively small compared to other feeders.

Also my diet while he has been attempting to recouperate: mealworms, superworms, hornworms, calciworms, silkworms, waxworms whoch I force fed him during this period

...dome that helps keep all my plants alive. Mealworms aren’t a good staple feeder...not much nutrition and hard to digest. I feed bsfl (aka calciworms, Phoenix worms), discoid roaches, silkworms and occasionally crickets. Hornworms and superworms are occasional treats. Many breed their own...

...I have given him a few tiny hatchling locusts and crickets, but haven't seen him eating yet. I also have flightless fruit flies and small calciworms ready. Do the cham babies need any help with starting to eat? I will appreciate some advice! I have added pictures of the digging baby and of...

I always recommend letting some black soldier fly larvae (AKA: BSFL, Calciworms, Phoenix worms, Reptiworms) pupate into flies and letting them in there. If a flying insect doesn't trigger a response, something is very wrong. While you are waiting for some flyers, try roaches, silk worms, stick...

Your cham is an adult, right? I don't think mantids would be practical in that case. The only cost-effective way to feed mantids, in my experience, is to either hatch the nymphs yourself from an ooth or to buy a bunch of nymphs at a time. But they will be much too small to be of much use to an...

...access to food, mainly dusted locusts and crickets and a bowl full of green leaves and herbs, fruit & veggie pieces and worms (mainly calciworms and Morio worms, only occasionally some mealworms and wax worms). I used to breed mammals in former years and know from those times that gravid...

...3 days) Supplementation= To make it easier for you, get Repashy Supercalcium Plus LoD. Lightly dust all his feeders with the exception of calciworms. That should be every feeding, and eliminates the need for a supplement schedule. Lighting= Basking temps should be 90-95° F, With light...

...not eaten since we've had her. we tried mealworms, crickets (dead and alive) and a variety of vegetables. Before we had her she was eating calciworms and wax-worms which are being delivered tonight. Watering - A dripper, a water spray bottle and a humidifier. I have seen her drinking once a...

Yes she is eating, no problems. I will be consulting with a vet at 6 :) hooting for a positive outcome on my bubby

So, I’ll go over your husbandry later this evening, but I’d like to offer what are admittedly intuitions/guesses. I am not a vet, and I have no scientific basis for this, other than my own reasoning. 1) Your female has too many young to support and is “making room” 2) Your female was not...

...not eaten since we've had her. we tried mealworms, crickets (dead and alive) and a variety of vegetables. Before we had her she was eating calciworms and wax-worms which are being delivered tonight. Chameleons will only eat live bugs. Mealworms are not good at all to give. Attaching feeder...

...to everyone for your input, it's been really helpful. I'm gonna be placing some online orders for small hornworms and I have an order of calciworms coming in to my LPS today. Sad to hear about the roaches as everyone seems to have these as one of their first choice feeders for their...

...5 crickets every other day. Gutloading is super important as it passes nutrition on to your cham. Variety of feeders is also good. Bsfl (Calciworms, Phoenix worms), silkworms are nice additions. Every other day my girls have come to expect feeding and it’s one of the few times that they don’t...

Hi again. The dome light UVB bulb is not providing adequate levels. You need to get a linear T5 with 5.0 bulb. Pic below is type I use. Should be placed in center top of enclosure with basking light close. Basking area should be about 8 inches away. Using that calcium without D supplement daily...

Wow! You are amazing. I will get on to that asap. He is being cheeky at the moment, almost demanding calciworms, he came to the front of his house with his big sad eyes, whilst i have been at work, after only giving him crickets this morning, to encourage him not to rely on just the calciworms...
