How many roaches?

[HerbsForMyChameleon]

I just got roaches in and was wondering how many should i feed to my 5 month and 6 month panthers and how bout for my 1 yr+ veiled male?? Im also feeding silkworms so how many of each? Today I fed 5 1" long and 1/2" wide ones to the ambilobes along with 2 silkworms.. does that sound right? PLEASE HELPPPP!!

I think Panthers eat the same amount as Veileds so 7 decent sized items a day is good for them (now they are getting older it will be time to cut down a bit soon if you feed daily). Your adult Veiled should eat up to 10 items every other day (if you can get him to eat that many crickets or roaches you are doing better than me, mine only want locusts and unhealthy worms.....)

Haha, they are picky and dont seem to eat as much as they should.. but hey, I offer it!!

It should have said wants, meaning just my male. My girl will eat anything that moves, so she's in my good books......
And my monitor will eat anything except worms for some reason. All we can do is offer the healthy food and they'll eat enough of it.........they can go a long time not eating at all when they are being picky.......and we don't want anyone to be overfed, that's probably worse for them.......
