Superworm/Silkworm question????

[Vega1974]

Hello all,

Just wondering if anyone has a recommendation as to the frequency of superworms should be offered to your pet chameleon (i.e. daily, weekly, etc). Also, can anyone recommend a place to order silkworms this time of year. I can not find any to order here in Maryland, nor on the east coast.

Thanks,

Eric

I use my supers as treats. IF my chams alwase have access to them they become spoiled very fast.


EDIT: By the way, silkwroms may be used as a stabple feeder, that is if you have a nice supply of them. They dont even need to be dusted with calcium as they have a high calcium ratio.

Thanks for recommending coastal silkworms, they have a nice starter kit which I just ordered and it comes with 250 eggs, 1/2 pound chow, keeper, and food grater for $25.
