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.

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?
My mom accidentally fed my bearded dragons 7 dead super worms, will they be okay and what will happen to them?
My 8 week old puppy just threw up what appears to be over a dozen small grub worms. A couple were still alive. Are there any worms that resemble grubs that are an actual infection. None more than half and inch long or so visible head I mean looks like she found a whole bunch of grubs and "grubbed down". I wouldn't be concerned about her eating grubs except for the fact that they made her vomit if they are indeed grubs.
Why are there a bunch of gnats in my crested geckos live terrarium? Maybe 5-7 in one terrarium. I have two live terrariums. They aren’t on my gecko just one the dirt, plants, wood, etc.
Hello, I have a leopard gecko. He's a juvenile, and I normally feed him regular/small mealworms, but the store accidnetly gave me giant mealworms. Would it be okay to feed them to him, or would they be to big and to much of a change. Also I heard they could bite him, can they hurt him?
Hi I have 4 pigs (I think almost a year old, almost ready to be butchered) only problem is that 3 out of 4 are lethargic and hardly eating or drinking and won't move around. Normally they yell at me to feed them and are very loud and noisy and they just sit there quietly now. Kinda creepy. They have been wormed with safeguard though
Does this look like worms?
Hi. I was wondering, what species of frog is roughly 2 inches in length, light green and has large feet and how much do i have to feed it?
Hello, I I recently bought a juvenile chameleon who I believe may have mites/ticks. The chameleon eats 4 crickets 2 times a day her appetite has not changed and she drinks water from the leaves in which i mist 2 times a day. I recently noticed black spots on her skin especially under her neck as she was shedding. Idk if she has mites/ticks, Please help thank you.
how will my crested gecko find his food? Is there any way to know the age of the crested gecko? I dont know if this is normal: my crested gecko will flick her toung out about every 30 seconds (not consistantly. just an estamint. cuz sometimes she doesnt do it but once for 15 mins.) Sorry, one last thing.. how often and long should i hold my crestie? she is about half size of a full grown, maybe slightly smaller stoumach wise. Thanks so much for your help! (can i ask tons of qs in 1 message?)
My veiled chameleon stopped eating, is getting very lethargic. Is approx 1 yr old. Feed her crickets with sprinkled vitamins and wax worms since I've had her. Keep a daylight on her and a red heat light at night. She's pretty cranky! Also have a small waterfall feature for humidity and drinking. Am I doing something wrong? She was more active before. Am doing what I was told by pet stores and pet shop employees.
I adopted a sick Leopard Gecko from a local pet store. The pet store doesn't take good care of Leopard Geckos. They have dried Mealworms, no calcium, no humidity, and their all crowed in one hide. My Leopard Gecko Geo wasn't eating Mealworms or Crickets. She is underweight and her tail is skinny. I started to get concerned so I started syringe feeding her daily with ReptaBoost. Today I saw her throw up some of the mix. It looks like she was struggling to regurgitate. Also the humidity is high.
