short on crickets

[Chameleon crazy]

I ran short on crickets by accident and won't be able to get more until Saturday. Will my 10 in. veiled be alright until then?

Thank you!

you can feed him grapes, apples, collard greens or kale in the meantime.
next time you should always have some emergency feeder available.
I always have silkies and flies handy.

Should be okay this time, but try not to let that happen too often. You'd hate to be without food for over a day.

Veiled chameleons can be fed greens (dandelion, kale, collards, endive, escarole, mustard green, etc.) and veggies (carrots, squash, sweet potato, sweet red pepper, zucchini, etc.) and a bit of fruit (apple, pear berries, melon, etc.).

Should the squash and sweet potato be feed raw???

raw is good, keeping a mealworm colony for just such an emergency is also a good idea since they are ridiculously easy to keep. not a staple feeder but good to have around coz... well you know
