the feeders need variety too. This helps to provide a larger range of vitamins and nutriets to your cham. Try adding some apple, orange, green pepper, strawberry ,etc. Not all at once, but change it up whenever you refill the cricket's food. I put green pepper in there everytime because it removes the cricket stink. Additionally, pick up a proper dry-gutload. I use Flukers High Calcium cricket food for the dry gut load, fruits/veggies (as listed above + plus what you already use) for wet gut load and Flukers Orange Cube for additional water and nutriets. Healthy crickets make for a healthy Cham!
My cham didn't like silkworms either. I ended with a cup full of silkworms that he wouldn't eat. I feed what I could to my frogs, but they weren't crazy about silkworms either. Eventually they all died and I trashed them.
My chame LOVES hornworms though. They're high in caclium, very squishy, and help to hydrate. Plus, they just look cool. You should try finding some that you can order online or see if a pet shop will pick them up for you.
What is your supplementation schedule like?

This whole thread reminds me of an old saying...
You can lead him to water, but you can't hold his head under.
I think that's how it goes
close enough for me

Why couldn't you have just created a new thread instead of reviving one of the bigger ones that got you into all this crap

Because he's not feeling any shame? It's just a concept.

Imo Chamster.... just leave this thread to die.... its not even worth commenting on because everyone is kinda T.O @ you at the moment, best to just let everything settle mate.
