Bump??

That's fair, and good you recognize you're too uncomfortable to do it.

How was he today? Are you able to provide a picture tomorrow when his lights are back on?

Have you tried a superworm or any other treat bug to entice him?

Realistically, a healthy cham can go a few days without food... My Jackson goes on streaks where he refuses crickets, but pounces on the black soldier flies anytime...

Picky creatures. 🤔

So after yesterday, apparently my mom managed to get him to eat 2 crickets and I think he ate one today- He's been basking and drinking water. He's in his little hiding place right now- but I'll get a pic don't worry!

Superworms I'd love to use. Only issue is, I've tried introducing those and He just turns his head- but I'm learning maybe he's just being picky?? Like I said he flares up at hornworms now. Lately he's been eating crickets that are just left on his branch, not from hands, feeders or anything else-

And yeah! I knew that they could go for a while but the vet said that he was probably 5-6 months based on his weight and stuff. Correct me if I'm wrong, at a year old you do like 3-5 feeders every other day?
 
There's no real set age to start reducing their feeding, each cham is a bit different. It's more so when you notice that he's starting to gain weight and no longer growing. I've never had a panther cham myself; but the more experienced members here will be able to tell you when to start cutting back, if you ask them to look at pictures of him. 🙂

This is a good recent article on feeding: https://www.chameleons.info/l/myth-24-how-much-you-feed-depends-on-the-age-of-your-chameleon
