My phoenix worms have turned into flies

[zebedeepink]

I was a bit shocked to say the least. I have had them for about 2 months and they went hard pretty quickly and were a bit small to hold George's interest. Anyway, I was talking to George today as you do and I heard aa weird buzzing noise. I though it was the waxworms who had turned and just as I was about to open the tub in her viv, I noticed a slight movement out of the corner of my eye and it was the phoenix worms which are in a clear tub :shock: Anyway, what I wanted to know basically is is it ok to feed them to her? She loved the waxworm moths

I think they're called soldier flys, someone on another board has successfully bred them

Hello,

Yes that is what they are called, soldier flies. You could breed them if you wanted to. It is a bit detailed though. :shock:
