I have been feeding crickets as a staple to my beardies, theyre not convenient to get. They are a dollar a dozen, half of them die anyways, they stink, they jump. And i hate them.
Suggestions on sites that can ship some live feeders to me? Silkworms, pheonix worms, black soldier fly larva, dubai. You know the nutritional staples. I can get hornworms and superworms as treats locally. I mostly want something that won't empty my wallet, is trustworthy, and easy.
I've searched and it seems every site i find has something that makes me uneasy. I've learned the hard way that with reptiles, a lot of different sites say different things on what is good and what isnt. I've bought the wrong things, and the crappy things too many times.
I would recommend feeder source. I have purchased insects such as Horn worms, Dubia roaches, Crickets and even a box of 500 superworms. All of the insects I have purchased were all healthy and alive (and all three of my beardies loved them). Here's a link to their website: http://www.feedersource.com/default.asp
I have heard that rainbow mealworms was good and cheap. with lots of good reviews. here's their link: http://www.rainbowmealworms.net/ and I know how you feel. I HATE crickets. all the insects you said are much better.
