QUICK SUPERWORM QUESTION

[DragonDude24]

HI EVERYONE, JUST A QUICK SW QUESTION. WHAT IS THE LIFE SPAND OF A SUPERWORM COMPARED TO A CRICKET? :?:

I dont have an exact number but compared to a cricket...I have superworms that last me 2 months easy. I keep them in a little oatmeal...feed them potato, carrots and the stumps from my greens and they do just fine...Longest a cricket has ever lasted me is a little over a week.

And supers are much easier to keep..much less messy and no stink.

I have had almost all of my supers last for months.
And this last batch of crickets that I had, I think they were posessed, they lived about 2.5 to 3 months!

Last sooo much longer than crickets. Among other reasons, this is why I switched to superworms. Easier to handle/feed, no escapees, much cleaner, less smelly, and cheaper!

The life span of a superworm from the time it hatches to the time it's ready to morph into an alien again...larva stage... is about 6 to 12 months.
