Butterworm Weight

This is going to sound weird but can anyone weigh a butterworm for me? I’m trying to see what weight it’s equivalent to in crickets ? A cricket is .25g each.

That chart isn't correct it's the same one that one of the dubia companies uses too.

We had a thread here years ago where elliot's butterworms lab tested his butterworms and they agreed with all the other charts that stated butterworms are low fat high calcium feeders.

Edit: I admit I didnt really read that whole article when I first saw the butterworm info. It seems the author has done his research but I'd be interested In if he could share his findings and reports and lab testing. Because elliot's shared that with us and it showed what i previously stated.
So it's hard to know what to believe. I saw the lab results from elliot's, but not from this article.

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
