Locusts & Worms

[SexySez]

Righty Ho bought some locusts yesterday! Have never seen Puff so keen to eat them! Especially as he seemed to have been off his crix. He wont look at the couple of crix I have left now.
Is locust ok to feed as the main live feeder?

Also can you tell me, as Puff is 5-6 months if I can feed meal worms or wax worms???????????

I am so confused, was reading through some posts yesterday and I havent got a clue now!

Many thanks

Yes, the locusts are perfectly fine as a staple feeder.

Mealworms and waxworms should not be fed very often, if never. Feeding as a very rare treat like a few once a month would be ok, but not much often than that realistically. It's best to not even feed them IMHO, especially the mealworms.
