Yeah I fed some painted ladys to Samson, I bought them offa Pssh last year some time. Samson went nuts for them and it was so cool to see him with huge wings hanging out of his mouth.
Pssh: You get more butterflies and you have an order from me. :)
I put all mine into a blender and froze them into little cubes, I would thaw a cube a night and always have fresh gutload ready.
I would add a lot more dark leafy green veggies to your gutload, the vitamins and minerals they contain can't be beat.
But if you can't blend them, you can...
My feeders go nuts when I toss in fresh cricket crack. I have an amazing wet gut load I use too but they will ignore it until most of the goodies in the crack are gone.
It was a long and hot day at work in the kitchen and I was thankful to be outside in the fresh cool night air when my peace was disrupted by a huge beetle that tried to go kamakazi on me! At first when I saw him coming I thought he was a bat but then I saw this monstrous beetle.
I was at...
Hahah he looks as if he has a horrible case of "little dog syndrome" You know the kind of disease your little teacup terrier gets where he thinks hes a pitbull and way stronger than the neighbors Rottweiler.
Happened to me once, I had my little Cleopatra out for her weekly weigh in and she decided I was really scary so he took a leap of faith right out of my hand..........................and into my sock drawer. Phew!
Yeah I love checking them out when they are asleep, here is Samson in some new PJs then night after his last shed.

I think FL Chams is a great place for you to buy your first cham, I got my little Ambanja girl from them. You are taking great steps to ensure overall good husbandry for your chameleon. If you keep reading and taking suggestions of the knowledgeable forum members and act quickly to correct and...
Here is a few random pics I grabbed over the past few weeks. Those pics of Samson are right after a shed and his color during sleep that night. I busted Cleo drinking, you can see the water drop in the corner of her mouth.
Cleopatra was in this big hibiscus my buddy has while I was cleaning...
Yeah I was trying to think of some cleaver title, and since that first pic her shed is sticking above her casque making it appear large like a Veileds. :P
Looks pretty good to me, if your going to be trying your hand at some more live plants, you may want to look into additional lighting for the plants to really get your set up to thrive.
Yeah I lied but that was my first thought though when I woke up and went to mist Cleopatra who was 30G yesterday.
I get so happy seeing more and more blue on her. I need a new camera
haha finally someone who knows where Im at too. We still have about a foot of snow on the ground here in central Wisco. Even though today was up to the mid 50's we are expected to get snow tomorrow.
You can tell spring is coming though, only in Wisco can you see people driving in their...
