Northampton Reptile Centre now has these online and I wondered how they fare for beardies?

Unfortunately I've found the Calciworms really block up Mort so she loves eating them but then pooping is difficult. But worms would be a really great option longevity-wise now that she's getting adult and only eating protein twice a week or so.

Morio worms are better sized for a adult, buffalo worms are quite small. Both can be a bit harder to digest so I suggest you pick up a few from a pet store to see how your dragon does with them before ordering a large amount.
I've just started to feed my juvenile morio worms (super worms here in the US) and he does fine with them.

ah didn't realise morio were superworms - I've heard of those. :)

They do have small quantities so I'll give them a try and see if she does ok with them. Can you refrigerate them (like waxworms?)

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
