Ditto to Spuckler.

Mealworms are not really a great staple food for box turtles. Superworms, however, are absolutely fantastic. I raise my own, mainly so that I can have different sizes and freshly molted individuals available at all times. It is still a pain, but nowhere near as filthy/stinky as raising crickets.
