My hornworms have tripled in size in 2 days. Can my Panther eat adult hornworms? He's about 5 months and 6" long. Are they safe to eat at that size?
 
styrofoam ice chest and a ice pack will almost stop all growth. Don't let the cup touch the ice pack. I did this with my last cup and didn't lose one worm.

Do you think they're to big for him to eat now? They're about and 1.5" and the cham is about 6-7" head to tail.
 
You can feed them as long as the hornworm body is no wider then the gap between your chams eyes. Some say with soft bodied worms you can go a bit bigger but I don't.
