My local pet store is having troubles with their cricket supplier, so they only had supers, mealies, and waxies there for me to feed Loki. And Loki's very fat and needs his mouth moving constantly or he gets very grumpy and dark-colored, so I bought a bunch of wax worms and decided to see where it went. Sure enough, I mixed them in with his salad, and he seemed to have a seizure of happiness when the collard leaves started wiggling around. He ran around his tank three times, ate the entire bowl in about three minutes, and stared at me until I gave him more.
So apparently, these wax worms are like crack for Loki. How many are safe to feed at once? The pet store gave me a nice free crickets coupon and said that they should be getting more midweek. Is it safe to temporarily use the waxies as a staple before the crickets come back? He's been known to eat about 50 medium-sized crickets at once, so I'm not sure how many wax worms are allowed, since they're so fatty. XD
