Those sticky silkworms lol!

Kai is doing much better at eating his veggies, but in the interest of keeping it that way, I stick those silkworms down well on the veggies. Mouthful of worm, mouthful of (today its kale). Win win!

Stumpy sometimes hangs upside down and swings getting down from her perch, I swear I think she does it for fun.

I think Im going to keep silkworms and bsfl as my staple feeders. Theres just not a lot wrong with silkworms as long as you calcium dust them. Might do supers and dubias for variety, but he was pretty addicted to supers so Im staying away from them for now.

I bet she does! They sure love to climb! Should be getting his new tank soon...the exotic guy is just waiting for the plants to grow. Im a little nervous about the bioactive thing but he def needs the enrichment and I think Im ready for it, thanks to you and the other dragon keepers!

Silkworms are a healthy staple, they have some nutrients like ash that other feeders don't. Still offer some variety though so he don't get bored of his food.

Good point...he wont touch a cricket anymore because I didnt know that when he was younger. I have some bsfl (250 of them) which he will get on the next bug day. What do you think of superworms..y or n? Like every other week? He only had dubias once before when he was a juvenile...might try them too.

I use superworms a few times per week. I generally offer them and dubias together (just 3 or 4 of each) and I give hornworms and silkworms as treats.
Sinatra get most of the silkworms I can source, he is insanely picky but will gobble those right up so I sortta save them for him.

I tried hornworms with Kai once and he hated them! So I havent tried them again.
