yeah thanks, my cham ate a house fly and seemed to LOVE it, i think he enjoyed the hunt..
You should do a little search before feeding anything. 1.) You have no idea what that spider has been eatting. Could be poisonous to your cham. 2.) Ask you self and do research is this (insect) located where my cham is located?

Indeed, They are very inexpensive, safe, and chams go wild for them!!

I'm with eisentrauti. It should be fine. Normally, stuff you catch in fields is frowned upon because it may be heavy with pesticides, but normally a house spider is ok.
Yeah, chams love flies because they move around so much. Although, blue bottles really don't give them much nutritionally!

Not to change the subject, but I would say that you have a bigger problem to worry about right now. Did you say wolf spider? Those suckers are nasty and can get huge. We're talking tarantula big. And tuff, too - my mother dropped a 5-pound weight on it from above her head and it just walked away.
Seriously man, I would be checking around the house to make sure there's not more than one.Sorry to hijack this thread but I just had to interject that.....
And where in Illinois?? Don't be sending them my way....

sorry thats just a rediculous statement. (sorry if i didn't pick up on the sarcasim) but, you can drop a 5 lb weight on my head from just 4-5 feet above my head and I'm unconcious and bleeding. There is NO spider in the world that could take that........................... see what you've started...
