wax worms are very fattning i use them as treats only. Make sure u water him alot as long as he is hydrated he will be ok if he dosent eat food for a bit.

see what everyone else has to say too

Very true!

Again, your Veiled isn't severely dehydrated... you'll be able tell when he is that's for sure. Mist him like crazy and see if he drinks that way first. What you can do is spray the water through the top of your reptarium so the droplets collect on the top of the screen. Some of my guys like to climb up there and drink that way. I've now shown you how to give water via a syringe, so if he's not drinking in his cage use my methods, but only force his mouth open as a last resort, as that causes him much stress. Drip water against his lips first.

Good luck!
