where to order various worms

[ashleyelsha]

So I like to order the reptiworms and phoenix worms directly from their websites, but now that toothless hit 16 inches I am going to try a more variety. I already have a bunch of superworms and am introducing them slowly, but I really want to try hornworms, silkworms, and butterworms. So where does everyone order these from? I don't want to try to keep them very long, and I am definitely not interested in buying special food for silkworms, so I will just order enough to try a different kind of worm each week maybe. I just need to know which websites everyone has had success with buying hornworms, silkworms, and butterworms.
Thanks!


EDIT:
I was thinking about trying these pods:

I order all my silkworms from CoastalSilkworms. Great customer service, and quality feeders. For variety you can also try Linda'sGoneBuggie. She was great deals on the value packs.

yeah the silkworms are expensive... all worms are expensive.
Is there anywhere else to just buy butterworms and hornworms besides linda's gone buggy?
I can get waxworms and supers locally very easily.

anyway I look at it, it seems ridiculously expensive for the amount of worms...

Have you checked out Mulberry Farms? I have heard good reviews. They were too pricey for me. Remember, the butter worms will last a long time in refrigerator. The silkworms and hornworms have to be eaten pretty quick.

So maybe if I get a pretty large order of butterworms, and a small order of silks and horns I can make shipping worthwhile? How long will butterworms last in the fridge?

I have had my butterworms last for three months, no joke. I bought two tubs, and forgot about the second one. It was three months later, and they warmed up nicely. They are great, because dragons get bored with the same feeder everyday. I alternate silkworms, superworms, dubias, and butterworms.

can anyone suggest any other sites to order worms from? Particularly butter worms?
