My mealworms are super small too...I think part of it is that pet stores actually give the worms hormones to prevent the worms from turning into pupa...this in turn makes them larger... My meal worms only reach about 1 inch in length before morphing into pupa/beetles.
I guess now all I can...
Hi Ladysilk, thanks for your reply. Ferret food is expensive...I was very unhappy with the ingredients for the Marshals brand and actually feed my boys Ultimate 8 in 1 (30dollars a bag) because of the ingredients. (Chicken instead of Chicken byproducts.) Yesterday I went ahead and gave the...
Thanks Rob. The crickets are fed oatmeal, and high calcium cricket diet. They also get kale, apple, strawberries, sweet peppers, cricket gel, etc... daily. If I add Ferret food in addition to "the good stuff" should I still take the crickets off the ferret kibble for a few days before...
Be prepared to go through A LOT of crickets! Baby Beardies are eating machines! I got Ginger when he (was supposed to be a girl when I named him Ginger) was only 6months old. He would eat 25-30 full sized crickets a day. I remember experimenting to see how many he COULD eat if I let him...
Okay so I know you are not supposed to feed crickets cat or dog food, but what about ferret food?
I just started successfully breeding crickets. Problem is...at 3 weeks old, the crickets are about the size of 1 week old crickets sold at the pet store. They are growing...just really...
Good luck with your future panther! I will look up those other websites you mentioned. Thanks for the info... You friendship request was happily accepted earlier this morning...if you check my profile, you are in my friends list. :)
Took me 4 months to track down my Veiled in BC...I had originally wanted a Jacksons but was not able to find any in Canada.
Since there will be Canadians checking and responding to this thread, I was wondering if you guys order your feeders online? If so, what website do you use?
Okay I will get on that today. My superworm breeding project is taking much longer then anticipated...Ive had the beetles for 2 weeks ...but no baby worms. Anyone else breed supers? How long does it take for the eggs to hatch?
For the silks and horns I've only seen jumbo ones at my pet...
Thanks for your kind words! Here is my info, it would be great to have someone check over it for me...just to be certain i am doing this right!

Hey everyone,
Norman is my first Chameleon and I have had him for 6 weeks now...which makes him 10weeks old. He measures approx 2 inches snout to vent and then has about another 2 inches of tail when its not curled up. I was wondering if he looks okay, and is he a appropriate size for his...
This helped me a lot!
Thank you everyone for taking the time to express their opinions on this subject. It has opened my eyes and made me think about all the factors involved in supplementing...:D
