Poor sweethearts. What pet store is that? Is it one of the chain stores? They have terrible set ups for chameleons - bowl of veggies, bowl of water and looks like not much for them to climb. I try very hard to avoid going into pet stores because I want to ‘save’ them all. I had to go into one...

And those graphs range 24 hrs so I believe the highest points are obviously during the day and low points are during the night.

...had organic but was not sure if that means if it was fertilizer free. Also, they had organic soil for tomato it and citrus and flower and veggies and bedding soil(which I don’t know the difference). I didn’t buy it because I was not sure and didn’t want to take the chance. Also, any one like...

T5 6% and for supplements I started at one month but making sure feeders are gutloaded with a multitude of different veggies

Got my new batch of differential grasshoppers after all 100 died last week from pesticides on the veggies I gave them. (Which 100% has to be the case since I found 3 in my house throughout the week alive and healthy that must’ve escaped when transferring them so didn’t eat or get next to the...

...dusted in calcium and once every 2 weeks dusted in multivitamin. i’m switching to crickets next week and will be gut loading with fresh veggies BSFL are good feeders, as are crickets, but variety is always best. Many on line vendors sell species specific variety packs, which are great if you...

...bug a day. He eats 4-6 crickets then 3-4 silkworms daily. The gut load I was using also included protein so moving forward I will only use veggies and fruit until he gets better and silkworm food (obviously). Supplements - supplements are listed above in the tread. I used to use a lot. I...

Your Chameleon - Male Veiled Chameleon, not sure about his age. I have have him for two weeks Handling - Rarely/Never Feeding - Main diet is crickets and dubia roaches gut loaded with fruit and veggie ice cubes that I made. I feed him around 10 total per day. I have been feeding him once per...

I have giant canyon isos. Even though I provide and maintain a decent layer of leaf litter, I provide the cork bark for them to better hide from my chams, who enjoy hunting them. Every now and then I’ll put a piece of veggie or fruit under their cork bark. They do seem to just naturally hide...

In this thread there is some discussion about feeding chameleons, mostly veileds, fruits and veggies... https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/veggies-😤.188300/ It's said that veggies can't be digested by chameleons so they shouldn't be fed to them....and yet it's said that they eat leaves in...

That's the same chart I have screenshoted lol! The only plant in her cage is a small money plant for her to hide in. The dandelion is in one of my male chams cages. He doesn't take to veggies very much and the crickets like to lay in them so he mostly uses it as a bait and trap situation.

Oops! I totally forgot to put that lol. Thank you for adding this!

You said…”The rest of the veggies all go through the insects first”…what veggies do you use?

I gut load my BSFL with the same fresh fruits and veggies as my other bugs. Yesterday was sweet potato day for example.

I would definitely add a lay bin.

Ahhh okay. I did see that gut loading with fruits and vegetables was a better option but the premade one just seemed easier so I figured I would give it a shot, but I guess not. And you are correct I did get my feeder insects from petco, however they were all perfectly healthy over the last 2-3...

...I’m happy to hunt down the information for OP. Have you gone over gut loading what bugs are available to you? Maybe making sure you feed your bugs veggies that are high in vitamin A could also be helpful. Also @Jihad warmest welcomes to you and your chameleon. You found a good place to...

I use fresh veggies consisting of various greens, carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, ect. with a sprinkle of bee pollen for gutloading.

That is his Achilles heal. He presents everything as fact. The massive problem with that is 95% of the people reading it have no background to understand fact vs likely assumptions I am pretty sure that if anyone followed his recommendations they will have a healthy and happy chameleon. Some...

YES! That cuttlebone is what i was trying to tell @MissSkittles about i refered to it as dried squid which is what we call it here in saudi arabia i was concerned it might be harmful to him so i didn't use it i can get it really easily thanks for the information he's about to sleep now i'll use...
