I gave both my guys some silkes yesterday, since theyve been so good lately (not!) and I mos say that i, and they did too, enjoy the experience very much... no cleaning to do, no nothing. My female LOVED it. My male was a bit more scared of it in the begening, but that didnt last long at all..

yeah, I am deifinitely switching once I get enough silkies going. I had major die off from the last batch of 500 crix I got. Never had such high mortality before. Of 500 I have probably lost 200-300! I am doing NOTHING different. Very frustrating! Silkies and roaches I'll do and make crickets her "treat"

What a spoiled chameleon! Roaches and silkies with crickets as a treat? Most chameleons are the opposite of that. Lucky girl and Good job.

I'm assuming you guys mean silkworms when you refer to silkies? I have a friend who owns a boa that refers to his newborn mice that have some hair on them as silkies too.
