What happened? They’re so overpriced now! $10.99 for 4?!
- Hi Marytza, Good day! We are sorry to hear about your feedback. This will be evaluated. Thanks,

If i buy these, can I still raise them to an adult moth?
- They might run out of food so be careful

I am planning on buying the 4 count cup, and I was wondering how many hornworms come in each cup?
- 50 count
Helpful?
Are these okay for baby leopard geckos?
- They get big very quickly. At their tiniest stages they would be fine but they would grow too big within a few days. You would not get full value out of the cup.
Helpful?
can these be fed to leopard geckos
- Yes, I am feeding 2 leopards and they enjoy 1 medium size horn each daily. Fully grown horns are too large and will be ignored. My veiled chameleon enjoys them too.
Helpful?
Can I feed these to a Pac-Man frog
- You can feed hornworms to your Pacman frog occasionally but they are fatty and don't benefit your frog all that much. Nightcrawlers are much better for them and can be a regular part of their diet.

My bearded dragon pooped and there was about half a hornworm he had trouble letting go of. Should I be concerned? The rest of his waste was normal. He has been eating 1-2 horn worms a day along with about 3 large super worms since my normal cricket and super worm supplier has been low for a few weeks. I usually give him crickets and superworms daily and 1 hornworm every few days.
Can I give my Chilean rosey red-haired tarantula green Hornworms as an alternative food source, then the Dubia hissing cockroach it lrg crickets
I gave my adult leopard gecko (female) a large horned worm (size of a pointer finger) as somebody I know told me any size will do, since they’re mostly water. She struggled to get the worm down, and its head was visible in her mouth for a short while. Her abdomen appears “full” and the color of the bright blue worm is showing through her abdomen and neck. She’s stretching her body out and swallowing/licking non stop. Other than that, she appears normal. Should I be worried, or?
Hello i have a leopard gecko i got her from my biology teacher shes super tamed i was wondering if i should feed them crickets or mealworms and how meny
I fed my beardie 5 large superworms, 2 horn worms, and 7 medium and large crickets. He chowed all the worms in 30 seconds and ate a single cricket after a minute or two. I have been feeding him this way for over 2 years and have always been told this was fine as long as he doesnt look overweight. He also gets romaine lettuce or kale every day which he usually doesn't touch. My question is, should I be feeding him more? Should I just keep popping in worms until he gets stuffed?
My has white worms what to do
I have a 7 mo bearded dragon, 18", male. He won't eat any bugs except wax worms now. No crickets, so went to dubias and phoenix worms. Nope, not anymore. Mealworms make him sick. Healthy, eats salad fine, poops daily, drinks water daily. Worried about proper nutrition. Was told Dec hatch date but wonder if older than told. 40 gallon tank, uv zoo med 5.0 long, heat 150 watt bulb, repti carpet, temps 90s hot and 80s cool sides.
I was wondering how much I should be feeding my pet leopard gecko. He's a hatching probably only a few months old. And I have been feeding him one meal worm a day and like 3 smal crickets. But he will eat up to 6 or 7 a day if I let him. Also I purchased about 50 small crickets and some of them have grown quite large. They would still be considered small. But I was wondering if they were now too big for him. What I will typically do is feed him 1 larger cricket. 1 worm and then 1 small cricket.
What kind of worms are these?
My mom accidentally fed my bearded dragons 7 dead super worms, will they be okay and what will happen to them?
I have had Lyra for about 3 months. so far mealworms are doing fine,but I have been doing research about mealworms, andmost people say they are hard to digest. I would feed crickets, but they freak my parents out (including myself), and they are a bit more work. Is it ok to feed the mealworms? (My crested gecko LOVES them. she is about half full grown, and she eats 2 to 4 every day!) Also, my crested gecko was fed almost ALL insects, and now she won't eat the diet..
Hello, We seem to be having an issue concerning the poop(?) of some of our 5 day old chicks. We ordered them online from a quality breeder, not a mass-hatchery like Tractor Supply or Agway. All of a sudden, some of them (4 or 5 of them out of this batch of 22 chicks) seem to be pooping weird, long, stringy poops that don't look normal. We were thinking they could be intestines, however looking at images of intestines coming out of chicks it doesn't look like that- it's not bloody or anythin
