tomato worms

[hustlur]

are these safe for chams?

 

[sandrachameleon]

no.
not if they've been eating tomatoe plants (toxic)

 

[reptileman]

wild ones no but ones fed on chow that you can buy from mulberryfarms or greatlakes hornworms are safe

My veiled loves them, but I got them from a feeder supply store that had a booth at an expo, so they've been eating non-toxic stuff. I wouldn't ever feed wild caught bugs of any kind, mainly because parasites are rampant.

But I do know many many cham owners who feed their chams tomato worms. I can't testify as to where/how they get theirs, but no one has had a problem.
