Silkworms are great feeders, but for a chameleon it is best to mix up their diet and keep many different feeders for variety-not just one staple. I'd say keep as many different feeders and keep mixing them up everyday for your cham. I think this will also help keep your cham's appetite up.

could you move your basking bulbs to the free range?

congratulations!! I tried once and ran out of chow..boy do they eat a ton. I'm waiting until the mulberry trees come in to start again. Congrats though! I'm sure your chams will be thanking you :)

you can also check out any of the site sponsor's websites..

have you checked lowes or home depot websites? I know they sell it in the store.

I'm sooo jealous! I love Falys! He is very beautiful!

wow! his bars are really defined! Can't wait to see him full grown!

make sure they have enough food and water (but not standing water because they will drown themselves) and also make sure they are in a well ventilated area. When crickets die, they emit a gas that will kill other crickets, so once one dies they all start unless you have some ventilation. Also...

What a cutie! And I absolutely love the name lol

So....lets see some pics!!

If you want a good feeder with a lot of calcium, I think silkworms are best. Also, as long as you are supplementing correctly, you don't necessarily need a feeder with a ton of calcium. What is your supplement schedule look like now?

I feed once a day around 11 (lights come on at 8) so that I can mist him and he can warm up before he eats.

Chameleons are so addicting! I can't wait to make my own chameleon room. I'm hooked :)

I have never tried cup feeding. I usually hand feed the first one or two feeders that I give my chameleon for the same reason you do and then free range the rest. I choose to free range the feeders because I feel like its more natural and gives them exercise as well as helps them build muscle...

Oh okay. I have no idea if there can be too much light, but the enclosure looks good! Great job.

Oh okay, I understand now. I'm glad you checked it out first! Do a lot of people have chameleons in South Africa?

It sounds okay to me. Your cham may just be a little stressed because the reptisun is so much longer than the coil bulb. Maybe hes just getting used to the change?

The warm water should help. When I first started spraying my cham(using a fertilizer sprayer) he did not like it at all. I think it was mostly because the sprayer is a big scary black thing. He is starting to get used to it now and even drinks off of the leaves while it is next to him. I think...

I have mine on a timer..On at 8am and off at 8 pm.

Ooh! He looks like he will have some great colors when he's older! How old is he?? I can't wait to get another cham lol They really are addicting.
