dubia roaches?

[venessa214]

I just recently got an ambanja panther chameleon, and was wondering if he can be fed dubia roaches? I haven't seen them mentioned much on here. Also, is there a pretty inclusive list of what can be fed?

There's a HUGE list of what they can be feed. I'll give you a list.

Roaches-Dubias are on of MANY type of roaches that can be fed to your roaches. They need to be gutloaded though.
Crickets-They also need to be gutloaded before you feed them.
Hornworms-Great feeder to add on a little weight and are good to hand feed. Squeeze them just enough to make them squirm but not to hard so your cham can still take it when he shoots at it. They grow FAST though.
Silkworms-Great for some extra hydration and good for picky eaters. They grow super fast as well. Both silkworms and hornworms eat mulberry food, which you can order.
Butterworms-Super good food for your cham and are easy to take care of. Just stick them in the fridge and they live for quite some time.
Repti-Calci/Phoenix worms- Great feeders as well.
Wax worms-High in fat, should be used on a treat only basis. Good if you cham needs a little extra weight added on.
Super worms-They need to be gutloaded and should not add up to more then 10% of your cham's diet. Should also be fed with an equal amount of soft bodied worms.
Meal worms-The same as the super worms.
Praying Mantids-I have found that these are my chams favorite treats. You get them in ooths and let them hatch out. Feed them ff and small crickets.
