:D

Reptiworms are GREAT! I used them till my beardies were a year old. No shell to worry about and they are full of calcium. All I did was put a lot of them in a bowl and let my 2 eat as much as they wanted all day. They are sooo much easier than crickets! I give them 2 thumbs up ;)

I ordered the large (the smaller sizes are tiny). I ordered 1,000 every week and a half but I was feeding 2 juvies. And one of those (Yaddle) was a super hungry piggy, lol. They aren't hard to care for. You don't have to feed them. Just take out how many you want to feed out of the substrate that they come in and put them in your beardies food bowl.

Hornworms are different and grow so fast. I got 25 smalls and by a week they grew HUGE! If your feeding a smaller beardie make sure to feed them off fast.

Here is a video of Yaddle eating some. Not sure when I put that music on there, but I really need to change it, lol. It makes me sleepy, lol.

can someone please explain the difference between reptiworms , phoenix worms and hornworms
Both Phoenix/Repti & Horn worms are high in calcium & low in fat. Phoenix/Repti worms do have a high count of lauric acid which helps combat coccidia. Horn worms contain an enzyme which helps distribute calcium & they also have a high moisture count as well.
