I use a primarily Silkworm based diet. I buy in bulk from some awesome friends who own
CANADIAN SILKWORMS (Canadian residents only) and feed them off as fast, or slow as needed. The chameleons stay much more hydrated. I cannot say many negative things about silkworms.
However, I do suggest that if you are feeding many silkworms, that you offer some appropriately sized feeders with chiten (stiff substance that covers the body of insects) every once and a while (Weekly, or bi-weekly) to help clean out the system with a more solid excretement.
I have found no documentation of this, however, this is from personal experience and discussion with other silkworm supporters.
