Hey hey,
Has anyone tried the "Phoenix Worms" Mulberry Farms is offering? If so, what did you think and what did you feed them to? http://mulberryfarms.com/phoenix.htm
And here's a link to the guy who "discovered" them:

Wormman has them too. I just ordered some in 2 sizes from Mulberry Farms along with silkworm eggs and some other feeders. They should arrive tomorrow. I will be trying them on Acanthosaura armata sub-adult & adults, Acanthosaura lepidogaster adults, and Acanthosaura capra babies. These are all species of Mountain Horned Dragons.

Since you are interested I will post my results after they arrive!

Well, it's too soon to know about the A. lepidogaster yet, but the baby A. capra pounced on them! They are very lively worms, anything should really be attracted to them. They don't just sit there like most worms, constant motion! They aren't real big but I think Mulberry Farms had something on their site that showed the sizes so you should have an idea of what to expect there.

I'd say if the size is right, give them a try!

The A. lepidogaster were a bit slower to get at it but they cleaned their dish too! Seems the Phoenix Worms are a hit with my MHDs!
