Wax worm pupae and moths?

Oxymiocysu · Apr 21, 2019

I know wax worm larvae are good as an occasional treat, but can beardies eat the pupae? Before they turn into moths. And if they do turn into moths, can beardies eat those also?

(Not sure if this belongs under feeding or feeders, sorry.)

They should be able to eat them at any stage, including wax moths. I would be careful not to let the moths loose since they can be harmful to bee hives.

That's where their name comes from. They eat the bees wax that the hives are built on. Not really a pest you want loose in the wild =)
