So, either tomorrow or the next day I will be getting some Hornworms, Silkworms, and superworms.... I bought way more than my cham can eat any time soon....What is the easiest way to keep these guys alive? I'm going to see what ones I can get him to eat the easiest and then I'll work on breeding worms later. But for now I bought bug burger..It's not been proven yet but I have heard you can feed it to worms...........
 
Hornworms you can just keep in room temp. But they grow very fast so people put them in the fridge door to slow down their growth. If you make Them too cold, they will die. Silkworms you just leave them in room temp. Clean their frass out often and this goes for the hornworms as well. Super worms you juts leave in some Substrate. I leave mine in super chow and give them carrots, bug burger, apples. Supers live foreve and they grow very slowly. I bought one thousand last summer and I still have a ton.
 
So do I just keep the hornworms in the frige for a couple days then put them in the cabinate for a couple days..... Or can I just leave them in the frige for a few weeks?
