Are there feeder insects that tend to be more or less heavily parasitized than others? How do you deal with fecal checks--do you just routinely do them once or twice a year, or wait for symptoms to develop (runny poop, etc.)? I'm not used to feeding insects, so I want to make sure I know how to handle the potential parasites.
I just got in 2,000 mealworms from reptilefood.com. Holy moly, is that a lot of mealies! They do look very nice and juicy, though, and came in right on time.
