Dumb Feeding Question

I am able to feed the meal worm beetles to my leopard, correct? And if so, do I have to do anything special like crunch their heads or anything???
Thank you.

You can but they have no nutritional value and leos will rarely eat them. Someone said they think they don't taste very good. You don't have to squish their heads. All you have to do is keep them in a escape proof bowl like reg mealies(they can't fly).
