I am thinking of ordering these as a staple food. Our beardie is 1 year old and is used to crickets. I like the idea of the calcium rich worms and also the no smell or noise. HOw many worms would you feed on a daily basis? I don't know how many to order. Thanks!
They are good feeders, but they are small. I have a beardie who is about 10 inches now. She eats about 30 crix and about 30 phoenix worms daily, in addition to the small amount of veggies I can trick her into eating.
You may want to start with just a small amount, since they are so small.. some beardies just don't care for them. Others, like mine, can't get enough!
If you don't like the smell and sound of the crix, you could try the dubia roaches. I've heard alot of people on here love them. I on the other hand couldn't talk my husband into them. He can't stand roaches. Check http://www.theroachguy.com for more info. Then you could just supplement with the pw's.

Oh no, I won't do roaches either. I can't stand them and the idea of purposely bringing them into our home, ew... hmm... our beardie seems to be doing better since his intestinal parasites and will eat superworms and mealworms but will still not eat our crickets. You think he's bored with them?
My beardie eats them as a staple along with veggies. She eats about 100 large ones a day. I order from the phoenix worm store and get two containers of 5oo+ for 45.00 and free shipping. I got tired of the crix and couldn't do roaches. It is worth it for me. My beardie loves them!!
