Wax worms...

[Saddlepatch]

My beardie recently "woke up" (I guess you could call it that) from his brumation and is really skinny - well, for a beardie anyways lol. I went to the pet store today to get him some crickets and instead saw some boxes of live wax, meal, and super worms for sale. I'm really sick of dealing with crickets, so instead I went for some worms. Remembering that meal worms are high in fat, I went for the wax worms; but I'd forgotten that those are high in fat also. There are quite a few of them in there, I think around 50. Since my beardie probably needs to put on some fat, would it be okay to feed a bunch of wax worms to him? I'd hate to have bought them for nothing ($5 for a little box of worms!!).

silk worms are a goos staple worm (high in calcium)

wax worms = treat
