Hello everyon,
I purchased a Jackson Chameleon on Tuesday, today being Thursday he has not eaten any crickets. Details about us:
I was told age is 3 months
Wild caught (I know WC please don’t judge I did not know he was wild caught until I spoke to the manager of the facility and I was already ready to bring him home) but anyway I was told he has been at the facility I got him from for 1 month and told he is 3 months old.
Cage: screen size LG reptibreeze, liv cham safe plants and some fake
Water: dripper and I hand spray 3x daily
Temp and humidity gage: I was told that Jacksons like it cool at night and to turn off the heat source as it only gets found to about 66-68 Manager recommended 65 degrees will be fine. So 12 hr on 12 hr off same with strip UVB.
Food: crickets free range.
I am at work all day and he has plenty of time to be alone. I limit to only spraying and putting crickets in cage.
Problem: he has not eaten anything yet. Was told he may not eat for 2-3 days. I am worried he will not begin to eat.
I am going to get some wax worms, in hopes it will jump start him to eat.
Any suggestion?????
Thank you, very concerned and worried.
