I just get "alot" of small crickets and throw them in the tank with sheltered cricket food, and let nature take its course. I have also dont self feeders with blue bottle flies and black solder flies, but the solder flies take timing. But my crew wont eat dubia from a bowl, they dont move...

It’s not the tips of the tongs that are the problem, but it’s that we aren’t quick enough on the release of them. You see how fast those tongues shoot out and grab a bug. If the bug doesn’t let go in the millisecond it’s grabbed, the tongue muscle and shooting mechanism gets pulled wrong and is...

I do have a dish for her food, it’s a mini birdbath But it works great. It’s the little grey bowl on the right middle of the enclosure. I didn’t know crickets can bite her at night yikes 😱 but luckily it doesn’t happen all the time just if they jump when I’m trying to pour them in to the bowl...

I'm also going to say your little one looks more like 5ish months. I feed both my chams mostly bsfl, and try to hatch them into flies for them to chase around. I don't dust them with calcium; they're the only feeders that I know of that don't need calcium dusting. I do dust them with Repashy...

His six times of wandering to the feeder bowl. I caved in to give him last round of more roaches. 😩 He ate a total of 19!

For new chameleon owners that didn't research much like myself, I'll save you some time. Get a 2x2x4 cage at least or build your own, no substrate at the bottom unless you plan on going bioactive, figure out an automatic watering system and get timers for lights. I use 2 mechanical Zoo Med...

Thank you for your info! And yes I agree with your aging guess I think I just assumed he was younger. Looking at other around 5 months I can see he looks about the same. Do you also have a dropper set up? If you do where does the water collect?

Namul can aim. But he showed me sometimes he very comical. I laugh when I saw him aiming at the feeder bowl. The feeder bowl is cut out of a large fountain drink cup. So he can see the bugs. But he doesn’t realize the plastic barrier is in the way. Initially, he knew to aim from above to get the...

No problem and as long as we keep worrying we’re taking good care of them 👍🏻😉

Hungry boi!!!

Beautiful little guy. 💗 Sorry about his tongue. The only feeder that I can think that may work is a style that Full Throttle used to have for bearded dragons, but I don’t see that they still have it. It is similar to this one...

Hi, I've had my chameleon for a little over a month now, and mostly I just drop a couple of crickets in the cage and she snags them when they climb to the top. She has a bowl of meal worms that sits at the top of the cage, but should I get a hanging feeder to put the crickets in? She does climb...

Hi all, Quick question: what is the best practice for crickets languishing in the feeder cup uneaten? My juvenile seems to have eaten his fill and has moved on to basking and exploring. What's the best practice for uneaten feeders? Take them out or leave them there for a possible snack later...

Some of my chameleons will not eat out of a feeder bowl, they are attracted to movement to eat. Have you tried a feeder run or a shooting gallery?

Shoot. Do you have a feeder run? That helps me. You could also look into different types of beetles? Mealworm beetles perhaps?

Hi! Long time lurker, first time poster :D My 18 month old female veiled recently had a double eye infection that she's thankfully recovered from. Unfortunately, when she was sick, she required hand feeding, after being a great eater her whole life. At first, when both eyes were infected and...

Are the walls to your cage glass? You really need to get rid of the entire floor and have it clean for several reasons. First, she is a female and will think the floor is the floor of the forest and try to dig a hole to lay eggs with no luck. She won’t know to use a lay bin. Next, it is a...

So I would go back to how he was being fed. And I would mostly feed all very small crickets. It is going to take time working in new feeders. But babies this young should be taking down anywhere from 2-3 dozen feeders every day.

I have this feeder for her, but none of the worms ever seen to climb up the pole, so I gave up, and found the shallowest bowl I could lol. I'll go looking for something better today. I do have a better feeder coming, but I'm in Canada, and can't get hold of the ones everyone has recommended

That’s a good idea. I didn’t think about trying a different feeder bowl 😂 thanks for the reassurance that it might take a while I’ve just been so worried!
