I've had my beardie for about two months, and it's been a strange complicated trip so far. When I got her from Petco, they told me they'd been feeding their dragons mealworms so that's what I got her. Soon after that I learned that mealworms shells can be bad for dragons so I switched to crickets. I liked that I didn't have to hand feed her every single one and also that It barely took any effort to care for the crickets. I just tossed them into an old 10 gallon tank and put water gel in and cricket feed or rejected vegetables from the dragon. I'd been getting my crickets from Flukers and that went great for a month and a half but my most recent shipment of 250 only had about 100 in it and half of those were dead. So now I am looking for a new place to order from. Where do you get your feeder insects? Is there something better that is similarly inexpensive and easy to care for?
I order all my feeders from www.mulberryfarms.com (they advertise on this site) they are usually cheaper than stores and other feeder sites, their shipping is fast (if ordered on a mon or tues which are their shipping days) and have quality feeders. Petsmart has cups of 50 large super worms for around $7 and mulberry sells 100 supers of the same size at around the same price, and the more you buy the cheaper they are, and they always make sure that you get at LEAST the amount you ordered, its usually more, especially with smaller feeders like bsfl. Their feeders go on sale often which makes it even better, and sometimes free shipping
WOW! There are so many choices on that site it was hard to choose which one to try first! In the end, I decided on trying out one of the postage paid "snack packs" so my Shacklynn can try out some new things since they are out of crickets at the moment. The prices look great. I hope I'm as happy with Mulberry farms as you are. Thanks!
Rainbow Mealworms has a variety too (not just mealworms) and very good service. They usually have a coupon promotion on going as well. I typically order from both Mulberry and Rainbow.
