horn worms

[NaTasha Brinkley]

I was thinking of getting my Rocky some horn worms as a late Christmas present. They have smallish ones at my local pet store and I think Rocky will go nuts for them. I know they shouldn't be a staple, but how often would you feed them? Are they a fast growing insect? I don't want to end up with gigantic worms before I can finish up the container.

NaTasha; Just buy a couple of them for him as they do grow fast and also die fast; Just a couple and feed right away-Hope this helps you some-bella-aka-river

Hi, there isnt a specific guide line of amounts or count. When we buy horns, we personally give our crew a couple at the end of each feeding as snacks till the cups run dry

Does anyone know where you can buy horn worms online? Or is it just in person cause all I can find in stores is too large for my dragons.

Google "hornworms for sale" and you will get a lot of online options. They sell them on eBay too!

If I give my beardies those twice a week I don't need to dust me crickets right? Cause when I dust crickets I've notice they only eat them if they are really hungry but non dusted crickets they eat without hesitation.

Mulberry Farms have very nice hornworms, but right now the shipping will kill the wallet

Unsure where you got the idea that if you feed Hornworms, that you wouldn't need to dust the Crix. All Live Prey should be Calcium dusted, the horn worms too, yes even Phoenix Worms, all prey, period.

Agreed we recommend all our customers dust there prey and feed them a diet that includes high protein.

My old beardie was giving some issues when it came to eating crickets so i thought i would entice him to eat by getting a treat....hornworms....well lets just say he never ate crickets willingly again. Hopefully this treat doesnt turn your beardie into a prima donna like they did mine lol

Well I finally figured out y I was having a problems feeding ryuu crickets they were too small so now she close to 9" and eating med size crickets but now at most she eats four crickets a feeding time. Now she's growing and is very happy
