I tell people to stand back and look out when my chams eat those. They can't get enough of them though!! I wonder what the biggest hornworm looks like because I've only seen them get as big as my index finger which is BIG!!

I know even as bloated as she looks now shes like..... more??? XD ya thats about the size this one was and he was plump! IT TOOK Me FOREVER to get him off the little rack though..... Literally took me like 5 minutes sitting there trying to get him off. Idk why but I have one cup of hornworms that are getting massive and my other cup they seem to be shrinking 0.0 They hardly ever eat.

I had that going on but then I noticed that the ones growing were next to the window and the ones not were on a shelf. Maybe light.. Maybe temp? I have had a few left before that were just late bloomers too.

Idk I keep them both in the same spot... on the top of my Chameleon cage right next to the lights because i wanted the heat to help them grow... Still nothing.... and I have been constantly cleaning out dew and mold. I havnt noticed as much mold in the smaller ones cup though because their just getting small and hardly pooping...

that's odd.. did you get them from the same place?? there are in general 2 kinds of food for them.. I heard one is better than the other. Not sure. I've had both. They both did ok. they just produce diff colors due to the presence of lack of chlorophyll in their food.
It's better that they grow slow on you> most of the time I hear complaints about them growing TOO Fast!!
