I dont get it even my leopard geckos hate reptiworms

I thought these little worms were supposed to be awesome food.
My beardie will only eat one on accident if they are mixed in with the crickets.
All nine of leopard geckos only barely picked at them.I woke up and the dish was still full.
Anything I can do with them? What if I let them turn into flies, I wonder if they would eat them then?I would probably end up with them all over the house

Between the uneaten reptiworms and those crazy banded crickets my food supply is running low.

BTW NEVER buy banded crickets, they are insane jumpers and Ive got probably dozens roaming the house now. NEVER again will I buy these.They chirp all night too.(although they dont stink like regular crickets and live a very long time).

My two beardies refuse any type of worm. They will only eat dubias. I tried feeding both of them phoenix worms today and it was a waste. A week or so ago I was checking my drawer I keep all their stuff in and found a cup of reptiworms. Not thinking anything about it I opened it up. It looked like something out of a horror movie where all the black things swarm an object. I slung the cup across the room on my mom. We both screamed! My son comes running in and by then we were laughing so hard we started crying. Learned a lesson real fast. I will not open worm cups up after a few days. Plus side was my son was able to try out his bug zapper fly swatter thing.

My beardie loves his. But that doesn't mean every beardie will be interested.

I was doing some reading on the internet on leopard geckos 'cause i've been considering buying one. And I was looking at whether or not they can eat reptiworms. Everything I read said that they are very good for them but most people could not get the leopard geckos to actually eat them. So it seems common for leopard geckso to not be interested in them.

Some peoples dragons love the flies and chase them around to eat them. They don't have as much calcium once they are flies though. Good luck unloading them I didn't have luck with them either.

Both my dragons and emerald swift love them! My oldest dragon loves them as flies. You can try donating them to a rescue or pet store?

Its amazing they are still alive though(the reptiworms).Ive been giving them a slice of bread with old banana smeared on it and they eat it up. SO gross yet so interesting.
I dont think my beardie could eat the flies she is only a month old and now 4 inches long, growing like a weed. I just this week moved her to her big girl cage and she uses the whole thing(a 75 gallon).
