7 months, feeding/eating

[camimom]

Ok, so Kink, my 7 monthold veiled, seems to be eating every other day. I gave him 6 medium crickets yesterday and he didnt really touch them. But when I gave him 10ish smaller crickets hes chowin down like theres no tomorrow.
Cna I just feed him every other day? I know you can do that wih adults, but not sure about doing it now.

6-7 months is usually the time their appetite takes a small dive so yea... I started Stan on every other day at 6 months... Just be sure to offer more of a variety

Awesome. We have some reptiworms that im feeding him, as well as going to let some develop into the flies. in about a month hes gonna get more variety. no room right now to store them.

I too think 7 months is fine to only feed everyother day UNLESS the chameleon is under weight.
