Babies Hatched - FOOD????

countvv Jul 27, 2003 10:48 AM

I do not have any wingless fruitflies and won't be able to get any for 48 hours.

Babies just hatched in the last 24 hours.

Anyother food that I might use until I get the flys?
Do babies need anything else?

i am not really sure on how true this is because i have never bred chameleons but i read somewhere that babies don't eat for the first 1-4 days but this was about jackson's and i am not sure if it applies to other species

Hi-

Pinheads and FF are the food of choice. What king of chameleons? Most wont eat for a day, but food should still be provided. Try a local pet shop for the food, until you get your order. It is always best to be prepared for the eggs to hatch and the FF cultures are best started 1 month before the eggs are due. Hope this helps!
