Our 3 month old....is eating between 15 to 20 , 1/4" crickets (some a little smaller) per day. I'm dusting with the Repashy Calcium Plus and gutloading with the Bug Burger. He hunts about 10 of them down, fairly quickly........then picks the rest of 'em off as they crawl past his perch. I'm still not seeing him drink, but his daily stool is looking like it's supposed to.

I got about 1000, two weeks ago......today. $20.00.......delivered. I'm sure that a lot of 'em will grow to large for him to safely eat. But.......the price sure was right. If you keep them at room temp.......they don't grow as fast and you should be able to feed more of 'em off before they get to large. I am gonna get another bin for them.........just to make it easier to clean out the one they are in. I'll just switch 'em out, from one to the other every week.

I was wondering the same thing, will they keep eating or do they know when to quit in other words, is it possible to over feed a young chameleon?

I don't have a clue as to "how long" they will last me.......but if I can keep them from growing larger, as much as possible.....it should be at least a month or so.
