Feeding banana roaches

[susurrus]

How do people feed their chameleons P. Nivea? I cup feed and I figure they'll just run out and down into the plants to hide before my cham can get them.

Thats why you have to get yourself some non climbing dubia roaches. You can cup feed your cham if feeding roaches.

Have some of them too. They're not quite at a stable colony size yet. Besides, I wanna provide some interesting feeders for him.

If you wipe some olive oil around the inside rim of the cup they wont be able to climb out

i feed climbing roaches i just get some plain calicum powder and rub it on the inside walls of the cup lightly and they slip and fall off idk about p.nivea but it works for me....plus they get a little calicum on the underside so there double coated roaches

Looks like olive oil seems to work around the lip of the cup. Thanks Todnedo.

you don't really want to double coat any feeder.

I just grab them by the wings, and have them shot out of my fingers by chams.

They fly

Nivea fly so preventing them from climbing wont make a difference. Nymphs do not climb or fly.

Digby, they stayed in the cup just fine when I used olive oil. From what I've noticed they only seem to fly when startled.
