What age can my panther start eating meal worms?

[Dirtybird2020]

I was wondering if I can feed my 8-10 month old chamelon meal worms? And it seems like he is slowing his eating habits down, is this normal as they get older?
He is eating about 8 crickets every other day pretty consistantly , well hydrated. He use to eat 12-15 large every day about 2 months ago, he eat wax worms if offered after his 8 crickets. Just want to stay ahead of the game with his diet and health

DB,

From what I understand, mealworms are not the best to feed your little buddy. You might try superworms instead. Here's a link on nutrition:

What kind of chameleon do you have? If he is a panther or veiled (or even a Jackson's, etc), he should be plenty big enough to eat superworms by now. My 7.5 month old male panther chameleon can pound back superworms like you cannot believe.

Silkworms, hornworms, dubia roaches, etc are also all good feeders. Variety is the spice of life! And the spice must flow
