I decided to give Dewey some more variety to his diet so tonight I ordered some Hornworms, Silkworms, and Butterworms from Mulberry Farms. They have these "new postage paid" packages and all three came together. He's had Butters before and he really likes them, but the Horns and Silks will be a first.
I can't wait to see if he likes them. It's so funny how owning a reptile can make you excited about certain things... like getting a shipment of worms! :lol:
Anyway, does anyone have any pointers or tips on how many I should feed him? Should I only feed one type of worm a day along with dubia or could I do a couple of just worm days without any dubias (he also gets a salad every day)? I read that you shouldn't touch the Silks with your bare hands. Is that true? Also, what do you keep your Silks in and will they be ok in the cup that they come in? Same with Horns.
