can chameleons eat cockraoches?(wild caught) I thought I would ask before I fer them to her
Thyey can eat cockroaches, in fact many people feed off dubia roaches or lobster roaches as daily feeders. but I would not recommend feeding wild caught roaches as there is a high probability they have been exposed to pesticides or other things that can make your cham sick.
If you want to feed roaches, buy them from a site sponsor.
thanks I am glad I asked
