Scared of Large Locusts???

[shazz]

Stewie is a year old male Veiled. He eats anything I give him, his favourites are Locust but I got some yesterday which are bigger than the ones he is used to and he hissed at it and tried to get away from it! any advice as I have quite a few of them

Try to get some smaller ones. Ask Miss Lily if you dont know where. She is also in Isle of Wight

Sometimes my chameleon does that when he isnt very hungry. he will usually just puff and hiss once or twice

ok, thanks, I will leave him be, he normally eats whatever I give him, he seems to be doing a lot of growing, bless him.

Bless him! He maybe wasn't hungry, or you took him by surprise?! Were they a lot bigger than his usual ones? I had some extra large locusts and a couple shed into adults complete with wings! They are too big for Amy's little mouth, but Tommy LOVES them! It's funny to see the wings hanging out his mouth!

Have you tried Stewie on Morio (super) worms? Both mine love the newly moulted white ones! Butterworms.co.uk should be having silkworms in again soon too. There is also a new silkworm supplier in the UK. Here's a link: http://www.silkwormstore.co.uk/

A little off topic......
Can you feed silkworms after they've undergone metamorphosis and are moths?
