It depends on what kind of worms you are talking about. Silkworms and butterworms are great substitutes for crickets.

Most people would reccomend AGAINST using mealworms, superworms, and waxworms as a staple due to the increased risk of impaction with mealies and supers, and the unhealthy high fat content in waxies.
The reason the worms liek silkworms were reccomended is because, silkies are soft bodied, which makes it easy for digestion, and are very nutritious.
