Dragon won't eat:(

[Bluebeardie]

Hello everybody
I have a 8 week old rankins dragon and he's been very picky shy and lethargic. Iv had him for about 3 weeks (i know they can b stressed really easily for a period of time when u first get em)and he doesn't really seem to like crickets he will eat legless ones that he doesn't have to chase...lol but he seems to really like meal worms, which I know aren't good for him Or his little stomach. So to shorten this iv read very good things about silkworms. And I wanted to know if anybody knew of any good, reputable and cheap suppliers of them? Thanks in advance!

I like Mulberryfarms.

Never have had a problem with them.

mulberry farms has better prices compared to the amount you get imo.

they are just very very delicate. but my beardies have NEVER turned them down.

make sure you read ALL the care info for the silkworms. and dust them with calcium.

if you are unsure try going to a reptile expo near you. it's usually around $10 to get in, but i usually see the silkworms for sale there. plus there are other feeders to look at and try out. we brought home a FIESTA last time!

I bought some Phoenix worms. Mostly cuz my work was ordering crickets (no shipping charge) and the company didn't sell silkworms. And I figured they were the next best option. Tyvm fOr the reply
