Delfiend, when we developed Phoenix Worms and began selling them in 2005, our goal was to provide a naturally more nutritious live feeder that required no gutloading, dusting, feeding, or special care of any kind. We accomplished this and Phoenix Worms are the most uncomplicated and convenient feeder on the market. These worms have been used and enjoyed by many thousands of customers who serve them as purchased, only dusting with vitamins 2X per week. Just keep the worms in their original cup in a cool place and feed-off within 2-3 weeks.
We are aware that there is a sticky post concerning "Growing Phoenix Worms" and that is an option for folks who want to take the time and go to the trouble to grow the large size worms even larger. However, NONE OF THIS IS NECESSARY, especially for babies and growing beardies who should be fed smaller size worms anyway. Note: Although we could grow and sell larger size Phoenix Worms, they do not ship well.
Keeping Phoenix Worms is easy and convenient. You do not need a special container or special food or anything. We hope this information has removed some confusion . Good luck with your new baby!
