Graceful Chameleon Appetite

[zjuckett]

For those of you lucky people who own Gracefuls, how is their appetite?

Find out about eggs too!

Also! To those who own Gracefuls, when should I put a lay box in for security purposes? At which age?

it depends on his mood! usually around 3 crickets a day. he only eats in the morning tho. before i get up so i leave them in his cup over night. if i give him super worms he will eat as many as he can probly like 5 or 6, for his size thats alot lol. if i give him horn worms i think he would eat himself into a food coma

as for your other question about the bin i wouldnt be able to tell you. i have a male sorry

 

[zjuckett]

Is your male full grown? Because if he's an adult and only eating that much then I'm not going to be overly worried that she's only eating 2 a day. She is only 6 months old.

 

[thatoneguy]

ive had him since last july and he was about 2 or 3 months then. so hes almost full grown. as long as she doesnt go like a week without eating you shouldnt be worried. if her grip is still good and shes still walking around our good.

 

[zjuckett]

Her grip is good and she does wander around her enclosure. Sometimes she "trips" but it's only when she's turning around, as far as I've seen, and I can't expect her to never misstep or something like that.

 

[thatoneguy]

trips? thats not normal. any bowed limbs or lumps on her body? hey lips strait? has she ever grabbed on to her legs or anything like that?

 

[zjuckett]

No, I don't think she has MDB. When I say trip, I mean once or twice as she's scurrying away from being misted or something she just gets a little off balance. It's nothing that happens on a regular basis. Her gait is steady and her grip is strong. When I held her for the first time, I was actually surprised at how much strength she has.

 

[thatoneguy]

ok thats good to hear. i guess its hard to run with one eye on you and another trying to see where she is goin lol
