Worms as a staple?

[ashley7988]

Are there any worms that can be fed as a staple? I currently use crickets as a staple and I also feed phoenix worms every now and then but I would like to go to exclusively feeding worms (much easier than crickets).

You can use pheniox as a staple. Tech can use super worms also. Makes for a fat beardie. Throw in some horn and silk worms.... Than use crickets ad a treat.

I use super worms and hornworms as my staples. Just realize that hornworms are very juicy so they can cause loose urates and watery, but formed poop if that's all your beardie is eating. Also, on the other spectrum...superworms can back your beardie up for a day or two, nothing to be worried about though.

Hornworms are also great for hydrating your beardie

Where do you all buy your worms from?

I get my hornworms from Great Lakes Horn worms. I also bought superworms from them but I think the lowest amount I could buy was 500 and they lasted me forever. My beardie who would easily eat 10 or more per feeding if I let her, decided she only wanted 3 per feeding or non at all after I bought so many Now I just buy supers as needed from the pet store.
