New Babies!!!

Hey, guess what? My chameleon eggs have finally hatched! It looks like I waited some 10, maybe 11 months. I have a a question tough...How long after they hatch are you supposed to feed them? I have lots of pinheads, and baby roaches...so feeding isnt a prob. Thanks for your time!

I've got to disagree here. Many cham babies will start to eat pretty quickly. You really should have some Drosophila melanogaster and/or hydei on hand. Some babies much prefer those to pinheads although others do fine on pinheads.
