Hey guys,
Just wondering if anybody has had success feeding their leos silkworms? Are they better for them then gut loaded crickets? Can they be addictive like wax worms or butter worms?
Sorry for all the questions guys.
Take care,
Jason

silkworms make great treats for leos and i dont think they are addictive. the problem with silkworms is that they only eat one kind of food, mulberry leaves, and need to be kept at warmer temps (which is no problem in the summer, but in the winter it is). i dont think they can compare to a well gutloaded mealworm or cricket but they definitly make a great treat.

I've found them as good treats for hand feeding training and new arrivals.
