Hi
Sorry long post
My online live food supplier has started to supply Buffalo worms apparently they are high in protein & great as part of reptile diet & helps with hydration. When I googled them it came up that they are high in protein & are mainly sold for people on a high protein diet. But they look like meal worms so are they an impaction risk?
Randall is 14 1/2 inches & 8 1/2 months old he normally has locusts & calci worms but is being very picky with his eating at moment so I need to change it up. I have only just started a roach colony. Everyone seems to be out if stock of silkworm's & the only hornworms I found were £68 for 12. & as Randall won't eat at a set time I have to free range his bugs so crickets are out of the question.
Any suggestions help appreciated
They are similar to mealworms. They are probably OK as a treat but I wouldn't use them as a staple. Just add some of them to a balanced diet. The beetles they turn into are often used as cleaner crew for dubia and cricket tanks.
