Feeder dish for Phoenix Worms

[proserpina]

I have been using phoenix worms for a little but took a break and had been feeding superworms, until I got my little Pitaya. I was wondering if anyone has either run across or made a feeding container that i can put in her cage that won't have tons of tiny little escapees! So far I have put them in a tiny strainer I use to wash off the worms from their bedding. They of course climb out eventually and crawl along and essentially become lost.

I've found nothing that works. They are great escape artists.

I have found the key to keeping them contained it to be sure they are very dry. After rinsing I blot them well with a paper towel. Once they are dry I leave them in a shallow bottle lid and they stay put just fine!

Yes since posting i realized that as long as I put them in a the mealworm strainer and shake them off real good than there may only be a couple of escapees. Instead of washing them off and providing the means of escape.

I shake mine in a strainer i made then used a shallow dog bowl
