I also feed wax worms on occassion to round out the diet of my DHL's. They seem to love them over anything I offer them but only give them 1 or 2 at a time sporadically.

Earwigs are abundant here and feed them an occasional earwig. I usually pull of their cerci pinchers and had concerns feeding them excessive amounts of these due to exoskeleton like waxworms so figured shouldn't give too many at any one time

My lizards also go ape$h!t for 1" centipedes that are also very abundant during the winter months here. Other than that crickets are another favirite in time of low-ant availability.
