I usually don't feed my panthers mealworms that often...maybe once a month. Even though you gut load them, they're not very nutritious and have too much chitin.

Waxworms (just as a treat...are high in fat), cockroaches, silk worms, horn worms, house flies, grasshoppers, mouse pinkies.

Mealworms do have the lowest calium and vitamen ratio of any feeder while also havinf the worst meat to shell ratio. I have tried them all and most worms make great snaks, but roaches can be your everyday feeder.
