You said…”The rest of the veggies all go through the insects first”…what veggies do you use?

I gut load my BSFL with the same fresh fruits and veggies as my other bugs. Yesterday was sweet potato day for example.

I would definitely add a lay bin.

Ahhh okay. I did see that gut loading with fruits and vegetables was a better option but the premade one just seemed easier so I figured I would give it a shot, but I guess not. And you are correct I did get my feeder insects from petco, however they were all perfectly healthy over the last 2-3...

...I’m happy to hunt down the information for OP. Have you gone over gut loading what bugs are available to you? Maybe making sure you feed your bugs veggies that are high in vitamin A could also be helpful. Also @Jihad warmest welcomes to you and your chameleon. You found a good place to...

I use fresh veggies consisting of various greens, carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, ect. with a sprinkle of bee pollen for gutloading.

That is his Achilles heal. He presents everything as fact. The massive problem with that is 95% of the people reading it have no background to understand fact vs likely assumptions I am pretty sure that if anyone followed his recommendations they will have a healthy and happy chameleon. Some...

YES! That cuttlebone is what i was trying to tell @MissSkittles about i refered to it as dried squid which is what we call it here in saudi arabia i was concerned it might be harmful to him so i didn't use it i can get it really easily thanks for the information he's about to sleep now i'll use...

Yes veileds are very picky they eat veggies when they want some don’t eat as much as others. They don’t actually need the plants bc we gutload the bugs, but I recommend a vitamin supplement gutloading the feeders is great but sometimes the chameleon can still get a deficiency. It’s smart to give...

Thanks!! I am going to discontinue use. I didn’t think the fruits and veggies provided enough moisture.

...burn your girl. Some clarifying questions: how many times a week do you feed her and how many bugs does she get each time? What kinds of veggies to you feed your bugs? Can you clarify your supplementation schedule? How many times a month does she get th multivitamin? Does it have D3...

...her spiciness, but it does help decrease both of your stress. She’s feed 2-3 times a week. Excellent Usually a mix of crickets with fresh veggies like spinach, lettuce, carrots, and strawberries. Not so excellent. While veileds will eat plant/veggies, they have no need for it. You should...

So the superworms for example I need to remove them from the containers they're in and use fruits and veggies to gut load them?? For some reason my chameleon doesn't like hornworms I've tried feeding them to her and she isn't interested

...of this and keep the cubes in my freezer until I start to run low then I make more. On top of this, I also feed my bugs fresh fruits and veggies from the list I attached for you, and I also use the dry cricket gut load from Josh's frogs AND I also use the Repashy Bug Burger....I...

I'm not good at cricket keeping. 1/2 of them die and there is too much cleaning involved.

...and beetles can all live together, they don’t need special beetle food, but benefit from some oak mulch and such. I just threw in some fruits/veggies and the grubs and beetles went nuts. I regretfully gave away my entire colony. I think stink bugs(some aren’t as smelly?) and some other flying...

Hi. Mazuri is one of the better commercial products to use. I use Repashy Bug Burger, but only a little bit to round out the fresh greens & veggies I give. You do want to give your insects some space and plenty of ventilation. Crickets will die from their own poo fumes. I use plastic storage...

...feeders? Food: crickets as main, super worms as treat Amount: 2 crickets a day Schedule: 7:30am 4:00-6:00pm Gut loading: pre gut-loaded w veggies Supplements - What brand and type of calcium and vitamin products are you dusting your feeders with and what is the schedule? Calcium: Repti...

I'm getting 50+ air humidity most of the time, mostly from the fresh veggies and fruits. That should be enough no?

They eat fruits/ veggies and cricket quencher for water. Apples/ spinach/ carrots or whatever I have on hand.
