Waxworms!

About how long will it take for moths to emerge once they first start turning into the chrysalises? And can I feed the moths to a female veiled cham?

It doesn't take more than a week or two depending on temp. And yes, you can offer them to your cham. I find they respond very well to flying prey as opposed to terrestrial. One thing though, the moths exude what must be some type of pheromone that smells like cheap perfume or incense when they emerge. Now you won't be wondering what that funky smell is when you open the container!

Coolio.

It seems like they would be a sort of.... fun treat I guess for her. Can they get them pretty easily? And also, do they flock to lights like other moths? Because if they did that would make it easy for the cham... Sorry for the questions and thanks a lot for the reply!
