Hornworm/superworm questions

[goalie75]

So I'm tired of feeding crickets. They smell, they're loud, they die, and they escape. My beardie is about 1 yr old and around 20". Basically, what's a better staple insect (based on healthiness, hardiness, and maitnence) and how often an how much should feed my beardie?

Dubia roaches, silkworms, and calci/repti/phoenix worms are all fantastic staples. Many of these are much hardier, healthier, and all around better for your dragon. calciworms.com reptiworms.com phoenixworms.com mulberryfarms.com are all great places to find these. People on here also sell dubias, so keep a lookout for that. You could also start your own dubia colony.

Roaches freak me out and I heard silkworms require special care and die quickly, but I'd be open to trying phoenix worms.
