Got some Silkworms!!!

[Beman]

@Spyro88 has some now We spend almost as much time with our bug babies as we do our chameleons.

i spend more time on feeders (cleaning tubs cutting egg crates, chopping veggies for gutloading dusting and all that jazz) than my other room mate spends on her dog

I've got a pretty wide assortment of veggies for my gutload (human and insect) should I stick to carrots or would sweet potatoes or greens be any better / worse ?[/QUOTE]
So what I was told was in a pinch you can give shaved carrots or like romaine lettuce. But only for a few days at most.

Yet another time the forum saves me time money and grief. I'm Off to pet kingdom for worm food ! No complaints here my local shop has an amazing saltwater aquarium section I love the eels they are insane looking.

Thank you @Beman @snitz427 @Spyro88

Yeah, same nutritional value no matter the looks. I get my chow online, but be aware there are at least 2 kinds out there and one sucks! That's all I'll say on that.

Can you recommend who has good chow?

I bought this one and my silks loved it. I got it because it arrived within two days of my order. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CWMS2Z2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I know this thred is about silkworms I have tons of hornworms. I've been growing really really fast. I've only had them for two weeks but this is about the size. Keep in mind they were raised from eggs. I also have some we just bought that are 2 week old too

I will be selling once I get a successful colony going. So many 5-6 months is my guess?

Haha OK. I can deal with Rainbow meal worms in the meantime.

Thank you, but I just picked up 50 at the breeder's conference that's in town. Will keep you in mind in the future!
