I don't have a picture, but what I use is plastic canvas. You can get it at a fabric store like The Rag Shop or JoAnn. I just cut it to fit the bin and put some paper towel rolls underneath to elevate it from the bottom.

It would help if you filled out the "how to ask for help."

In the series Life in Cold Blood it is reported that a chameleon's tongue travels up to 13 MPH. So I think Chris' research is right on the money.

What's going on here? I'M supposed to be the resident forum jerk, got it?! :mad: I don't think Aaron's post was TOO offensive (saying he's indifferent about the chameleon's fate is definitely against the spirit of this forum though). I do wish it was more detailed about WHY a chameleon is not...

I thought Canada was more like the moose nation? ;p

It seems I have every different size of Dubia available at any given time, so their growth rate seems great for me, it allows me to pick and choose what I want to feed off.

Easy there, cowboy, I think he has a girlfriend.

Just looked them up now and apparently they're popular as reptile feeders??? I've never heard of them o.O I'm pretty sure the biggest (only?) complaint with mealworms is their high chitin levels. These Mini mealworms being the same genus as their bigger cousins probably means they have a lot...

He's got his own jungle and gets to play Wii too? What more could a chameleon want?!

Epic repost.

I think that's mostly an economic thing to do. There's no sense in giving your feeders the good stuff if you're not going to be immediately feeding them off. So instead you separate what you will be feeding off and just gutload them.

What kind of lettuce? Mealworms aren't very good for your cham and some types of lettuce aren't either, good job tricking your cham~

Uh oh ....

As with all YouTube videos, the best part is the comments. Bye-bye, brain cells.

That's so strange because my roaches love to make a mess with their food and poop and just dig into it, pretty much burrowing.

I often read on here that direct calcium intake can kill roaches. I've never experienced it myself, and from what you're saying it now seems unlikely.

I think they all are to some extent. That being said, you can bet that chameleons eat butterflies somewhat frequently in the wild. So I wouldn't lose sleep over it, but I wouldn't make it a common occurrence either.

Wow, those are some serious horns!

Ummm... :(

Just curious... If the feeders prefer one food over another, is it possible that they're eating that more and avoiding other parts of their gutload, thus making them less nutrient-rich for your chameleon? Or do you control this somehow like make sure they get at least a little bit of everything...
