I'm pretty sure i know the answer, but there's a lot of mixed opinions, so i just want to see what you guys think. 
Can beardies eat mealworms?

The answer is mixed opinions :lol: . My opinion is, they are OK to offer in moderation as part of a broader diet. The issues arise when you rely on a single feeder option. They don't tend to work well if they are the only thing on offer.

I don't feed mealworms because of the risk of impaction in smaller bearded dragons. Adults generally will have no issue, but the feeder size is small at that. I prefer super worms by far, but there is a national shortage due to about 40 million super worms dying as a result of equipment failure at a top breeder.
If you can get your hands on them, go for supers. Might as well avoid the risk with meal worms on small dragons.
