Is there any foods besides crickets and mealworms that can give your cham nutrition? she likes to eat lettuce but i know thats very low nutritional value, but its one of the only ways she will drink water. so r there any other fruits or vegetables that a veiled might like?

i think its because some of them are dead when i get them. there will b one or two dead ones when i get them. the ones that are alive stay alive until my cham eats them. i would start my own colony thing but i dont have the time or space or money. :(

yeah i looked at sandras and its really good and helpful. thanks guys!:) yeah i have to go to the store like twice a week for crickets. she gets 5 or 6 a day and i get like 48 a week cuz so many of them die

yeah i dont think its iceburg lettuce

thanks thanks :) one last question, if u feed the crickets vegetables or the dry mix stuff, do u still have to supply them with water so they dont die?

I was wondering the types of food used to gutload the crickets u guys use? wet or dry. i use fluckers cricket food, that orange gel like stuff. but i was told that that wasnt enough. the crickets seem to really like grapes but thats about all they get to eat from me... :confused:

thanks thanks guys :) yeah she absolutely loves it. its the only time she will ever let me near her without totally freaking out lol. any other suggestions on food that will help giver the nutrients she needs besides crickets and meal worms?

Is it safe to feed your chameleon lettuce? i fed her a piece of lettuce one day because i saw that she was trying to eat the fake plants in her cage. she ate the whole piece within minutes. Now she loves it! whenever she sees i have lettuce she will climb to the front of the cage and eat it out...

thanks! :)
