Male or female? Supplements?

[Blizzy07]

We got Blizzy last month and i just want to make sure we are taking good care of him. Male or female? We was told male. Also how old does he appear? We was told 15ish months. Also what Brands of supplements are best? We was going to do flukers and repashy but ive been reading to get RepCal with d3, repcal without d3 and reptivite w/o d3. Thanks cuz any info is appreciated?

Very much a big beautiful Boy. Age could be about right. Honestly no way to tell unless you have a hatch date. I like repcal without D3 at all feedings and then Reptivite WITH D3 at two feedings a month say on the first and the 15th. This one would be your multivitamin and your calcium with D3.

Definitely a male! He is gorgeous! I will say that he’s older than 1 year. I would leave the supplements question to somebody else.

Thank you?? Hes been having crickets, superworms 1 or 2 a week tho, dubia roaches and we gave hornworms a try this week, he loves em. How much is normal? The lady we got him from said 8 crickets every other day. I feel like that wasnt enough. We have upped his variety of insects and the bugs get fed very well lol. Let him eat till hes full? Im about to add live plants to his home and give him a remodel. Im so excited

At his age you will only be feeding 3 feeders every other day. This is very important as they stop using the food for growth and it turns into fat instead. A fat cham dies an early death. Here is a good resource link. https://chameleonacademy.com/panther-chameleon-care/

Somebody dont get me wrong I didnt mean to say feed them 10 crickets every day. I feed my chams 2 crickets and 2 dubias every other day and sometimes I give them superworms. ?
