This may be a silly question but is it okay to buy worms and other insects at bait shops?
I noticed there are some bait shops near me that have butterworms, superworms and waxworms at really decent prices. So I was thinking instead of buying feeders online which can be very expensive, I can purchase my feeders at these bait shops. Now, what i'm worried about is is the quality and how these worms are bred and treated at these stores. Do you think there is more of a chance for my beardie to get sick off of bait feeders? Should I just stick to buying feeders from more reputable stores that cater directly to reptiles? Thanks!
