Hello
I wanted to get some variety for my cam on his food. he usually eats crickets and (not too many) waxworms and moths that the waxworms turn into. I went to the pet store the other day and saw these dried worms and asked the woman at the store. She told me they were silkworms and I should...
I would like to add more variety to my 6 month veiled's diet. I was thinking of fruitflies. Im wondering, is it okay If I leave a banana peel or an apple in the cham's cage and wait for it to have a lot of fruitflies and then he can zap them off the air? I have tried giving him grated apples...

Hello
My 5 month old male veiled hasnt been eating well. I give him crickets (1 inch) and mealworms but he doesnt eat them! I drop in a bunch of crickets into his terrarium and then i find that they are still there 5 days later. And a coupla times i saw him eating potting soil from the plant...
I have a 3.5 months old veiled. He is healthy, active and happy. However, he doesnt like my hand. I try to pick him up by spreading my fingers on his path and he just turns away. if i try to touch him he hisses and will do everything to avoid it.
He used to be my friend's and when my friend...
You said he doesn't actively hunt for crickets...so I assume he spends most of the day just sitting in one spot...if so, that is not a good sign. Young veileds are usually fairly active.
-- well he does move around. but not too much. i have seen him run for a cricket from the top of his tree...
well, my just a week over 3 month old veil has erratic feeding patterns. its not even that. he is too lazy and doesnt go around hunting for crickets in the cage. i dont know how good his eyesight is either. and he is too terrified of me, so even when i watch him from outside his cage, and dont...
Well thats the question. What age is adult age? and how old do they get? I read that once they reach adult, you shouldnt feed them everyday but every other day. I have a 2 month old veiled male and i try to feed it as much as it will eat everyday. when should i stop this? i dont want an obese...
Poop
Thanks for the replies!
Another question. what does healthy poop look like? i saw him poop once and it was white gooey slimy stuff. is that normal?

A friend of mine left for an internshp and asked me to take care of his about 8 weeks old male veiled.
I have him set up in a terrarium about 1m x 0.8m x 0.5m, 2 sides glass, 2 sides thread mesh.
a) How many crickets should he eat everyday? Is 5 enough?
b) How many times should I...
