Why are silkworms not more popular? ... Next to Roaches they seem like the best feeder ...
Phonix worms --- To much money for what you get (small for the price ... BD has to eat like 100 to get full and they are $45 for 1000) ... Mealies --- no good, Supers --- Good but have to worry about impaction and can not even be used till BD is an adult ... Crix --- THEY JUST SUCK (what a mess)
So we come to Silikes ... about $40 for 1000 small that you can grow out in a few weeks to feed and BDs only eat like 2-4 (large grown out worms) at a time (instead of 100 PW) ... I know they are not that easy to breed ... But what am I missing? Seems like every one would love them bext ... Next to Roaches
