Phoenix Worms ordered!

How should I go about presenting them to him when they get here. It'll be the first time he's had them, and I don't wanna do something wrong and give him a reason to dislike them!

Not sure there is anything special you need to do. Just offer them to him. What I did was wash them off and place them in a straight sided dish and mine went nuts for them the first time I placed them in her cage. Only after this did I learn that they can crawl out if they remain wet while in the bowl. So if you do wash them off pat them dry. I just started putting them in without washing them as the substrate is not harmful and they tend to not eat very much of it anyway. As the worms dry out a little the substrate just falls off of them.

Awesome! My beardie is young, about 8 inches long. You said yours went crazy for PWs. But is yours a baby? Bc I'm not sure if baby beardies like them more than juvies or adults do. Lol

Yeah, mine is a baby, about 6-7 inches. I am about to place another order so I can have them for her in the AM then feed dusted crickets in the evening. I think that would work out much better with my current schedule, and her sleep patterns... she needs her sleep, hehe.

Oh I'm in the same boat. I am gone 12 hours a day so feeding him has to be QUICK! And crickets don't make it easy. I hope he loves Phoenix worms, it'd makes feeding much quicker and easier!!!
