Hey guys, this may sound like a dumb question but I've never used worms as a staple feeder before so I was wondering how the heck I'm supposed to know how many horn, silk, phoenix, etc. worms my girls will eat in each feeding versus the dubias they're getting now. I have no intention of ever feeding them crickets, but I'm sure those equivalents would be helpful to others as well. My girls are adults, one is 16" & 325g and the other is 17.5" & 400g... both a bit underweight, I know - but they're rescues I just brought home a couple months ago so we're working on it. They get live feeders once every 3 days and usually eat about 20 medium dubias each. Can anyone provide a conversion such as...
20 medium crickets = _____ silkworms, horn worms, phoenix worms, etc.
20 medium dubias = _____ silkworms, horn worms, phoenix worms, etc.
You get the point... any help would be greatly appreciated, as I have no idea how many worms to order but I need to do it soon b/c my girls are getting really tired of eating the same feeders over and over again, and they're losing interest in their food.
