Butter worms?

[Kam0408]

So I’m ordering food online for my cham and I was wondering I’d butterworms were any good?

 

[Fchamel]

Butter worms are not recommend, but a feeder that is similar is wax worms. Only feed as treats.

 

[Kam0408]

Ok thanks

 

[Lennoncham]

Some chameleons can have an allergic reaction to butterworms.

 

[Kam0408]

Oh..

Waxworms are meant to be a treat, and not a staple part of their diet according to the feeding guide FYI

Wax worms are very fattening and I never use them. Have you tried silkworms? They are excellent feeders.

 

[Kam0408]

Yeah I know they are only supposed to be a treat
I have looked for silkworms but can’t find and I use hornworms

 

[Kam0408]

The feeders I use are crickets, dubia roaches, hornworms, super worms, waxworms and BSFL.
