where do you get your reptiworms?

[sheri85]

i had someone suggest reptiworms to me in another thread, since my baby Archer is being a little picky lately. and i was wondering where other people got their reptiworms. i ordered some last week from Mulberry Farms, and they were only recently shipped. and they're across the country from me. are there other, possibly cheaper sites that people buy them from, or pet stores?

obviously i don't even know how Archer will like them since they haven't arrived yet, but i wanted to shop around in case he does like them. or are there other types of worms you've had good experience with?

I also use medium superworms for my 8 month old, I've tried silkworms, but the spin cocoons in the bowl if you leave them in there. Butterworms I use also, but as a treat not a staple. Hornworms are awesome but too expensive as a staple.. and my next thing is going to be Dubia's once I get rid of my Supers. If you want to try supers, I have a whole lot of extra... I can send you 275 for $10.00 to cover the cost of shipping..

I order from http://www.reptiworms.com, they have always arrived within 5 days of ordering.

thanks. i'll bookmark reptiworms.com. i still haven't received the worms i ordered a week ago, and they didn't ship till this monday (this is partly my fault since i didn't notice that they only ship on certain days).

@lauraj1055
i appreciate the offer, but i am pretty well stocked on bugs right now. he's been eating his crickets too, so with my reptiworms he should be set.

No problem! At least the supers live for a long time, so hopefully my beardies will go back on them. I think they got spoiled on Silkworms and Hornworms so are now snubbing everything else.

BRATS! lol

lol. i'm quickly learning that beardies are brats. Archer still won't eat his kale, or any other greens i offer him. once the reptiworms get here i'll add them to his salad and see if that works. nonetheless, i've still been offering greens everyday.

I use a mix of Collard, Mustard and turnip greens and put a small clove of cilantro on it, and for some reason that seems to attract them to it. Must be the smell!

oh, i'll have to try that. i've got a turtle who is also resistant to greens and veggies, and i've had to mix them in with her meat and bugs. but maybe Archer won't be that difficult.
