Best material to store Superworms in

[zoiesmom]

This may be a basic question, but I didn't see an answer on here...

I just got a bunch of Superworms, and they aren't really in anything....My last bunch came in bedding, so I left them there and didn't do anything with them. Pascal ate them quickly anyway :mrgreen:

I put this bunch in a small cricket keeper with oatmeal (olda fashioned and quick cooking!) and a little grits (in case they're Southern supers...)
Is this sufficient? I was going to add a cut up potato as I believe I had read to do, but figured I'd check first.

Also, has any one put powdered baby formula in the food/bedding of their feeders? I have a new can that I never used (never formula fed my girls) and I thought it might be really nutritious, but it contains soy and dairy, so again, thought I'd ask you guys first!

Thanks for any advice!

I just use whole oats.

Yes you should put a potato in there for them. Or a carrot or the like. They need hydration.

IDK about the baby formula.. I wouldn't personally.
