Chameleon Constipation

[Leslie11]

I think my 14 Mo. old male Nosy Be is constipated. I noticed that superworms seem to do this to him, so I started alternating the dubias, which don't constipate him, with the worms. I've had to switch to all dubias, but I don't think he can go yet, and therefore won't eat. I will keep trying to get him to eat the dubias, but want to know if there is something, food wise, that might temp and help him move his bowels. I just got some Phoenix worms, but I can hardly see them. Maybe I should let some become flies?
All the temps, humidity, etc. are fine.

When is the last time he went? Also, check the cage and plants well. Sometimes they have a good way of hiding their poop! lol

I agree with Carol. Also as chameleons get older they don't necessarily poop every day either. If he isn't straining to pass fecal matter is he really constipated?

Definitely check in your plants and stuff... they're masters of hiding their poop in them. Haha

But I'd say hornworms would do good for helping with that--they're super watery o.o
