I have two leos and they absolutely love dubia roaches and meal worms! Their eyes get so big when they eat them. Pretty awesome.

[@hattiedefreitas1805]

This is awesome. Almost all my babies love their dubias except Pascal, she is in love with superworms

[@Avocetexotics]

All of my reptiles have different favorites! My beardy LOVES super worms, my leo especially loves meal worms, both of my cresties prefer dubias and crickets, my dart frog obviously loves fruit flys, and my trio of mourning geckos will eat anything that moves from fruit flys, pin head crickets, tiny dubias, and tiny meal worms and super worms. I love providing a variety for all of my reptiles!

[@shannonmunsey1757]

My beardie loves alll the buggies and bananas. My leopard gecko is a sucker for wax worms. I love her energy in the video, and the information presented is extremely helpful!

[@lexilouie2360]

I think all of my reptiles adore hornworms. They’re the ultimate snack. But their favorite regular feeder is the superworms or mealworms.

RawKnee, my sweet Bearded Dragon loves his Dubia Roaches and Phoenix Worms. He’s only six months old, so he eats A LOT of bugs! Also, I LOVE watching him eat. It’s so cute!

[@bonniemiller1819]

If you just want to sustain a group of medium to large mealworms, what would you suggest for a substrate? Great exposition! And lots of info.

[@zenhabitats]

To sustain a group of medium to large mealworms, we recommend using a substrate made from a combination of wheat bran, oats, and a small amount of fresh vegetables like carrots or potatoes for moisture. Wheat bran and oats provide the mealworms with essential nutrients, while the vegetables help maintain the necessary humidity levels. Be sure to replace the vegetables regularly to prevent mold growth. Happy mealworm keeping!

[@ProfJCsCritters]

What can I say? I have critters who eat anything. :) Even the dead ones get eaten. My hermit crabs just adore freshly deceased insects of all kinds.

[@cheyenelee]

[@MindySimsFunnyFarmTx]

I have Geckos, African Fat Tails, Crested and Peacock Day. My husband has a Pacman frog. Nothing gets our "babies" moving like Dubias! Its so much fun to sit back and watch our crew chase or stalk them.....Other than Miss. Pac who sits and waits for them to come just close enough. As "empty nesters" getting back into reptiles has brought hours of entertainment to my husband and I.

[@brandonflaming7737]

My beardie loves hornworms, he goes nuts for them. THANKS!

[@jenfaris5407]

[@lisakirker9740]

My bearded dragon Copper just recently tried hornworms for the first time and he LOVED them, but mealworms are probably a close second.

[@eyeluvnevaeh7253]

This is so cool! I’ve been researching how to breed bugs for my beardie because buying them from the store is too expensive. My beardie LOVES dubia roaches!

[@BeeandMoose]

Oh man anything and everything. My Pac-Man frog has no dislikes. My leopard gecko goes nuts for any worms. And my BTS likes to try new things.

[@andria2395]

My picky eater as no specific favorites, he only picks one type of bug a week and it’s up to me to figure out which one! Never know what he’s feeling till he picks. He’s spoiled but I love him. Can’t get enough of those Goliath worms though.

[@LeoEyes21]

My bearded dragon Dumpling's favorite snake has gotta be superworms and hornworms. Though she also loves more berries (blueberries, strawberries and cherries). If im not fast enough putting the worm into her cage she tends to just up at the tweezers to get it.

[@endrebel1826]

Awesome!! Thanks for this amazing giveaway, I guess everyone's favorite is hornworms, but those are more of a treat!

[@agustd_minyoongi7790]

My beardie Barlow loves superworms and hornworms! He goes on and off roaches but can't pass up a worm!

[@BeccaCh]

Our beardie hasn't had a variety yet. He grew up on crickets. Trying to wean him off that to veggies. No luck yet with that. He's under a year. But he has tried a superworm and kinda liked it. He also seems to like peas. But as time passes, he will be given various veggies to try his pallet on.

[@elimagann8677]

My bearded dragon eats anything that’s moves but loves roaches

She knows good healthy food ^_^ And its interestinf you mention about the feed and care of bugs my dragon actually does have specific bugs she likes from certsin people. Really interesting when you figure put what they all feed differwntly!

My other beardie i got from a bad situation and im trying to encourage her to eat and are trying many different things and buying for 2 can be quite a lot especially if we want them to last a while. Mangos favorites are probably hornworms 😂 and kevin we arent really sure yet were slowly getting her to eat and drink and praying she makes it through!

[@Chasespets]

I really enjoy how information is this video is a lot of videos skip over the biological facts behind each step you take. Right now the two bearded dragons that I own are both rescues. One of them was being fed dubia roaches before I got him he absolutely loved them, my other rescue has yet to try them but she loves darkling beetles on occasion.

[@efgexotics]

My reptiles absolutely LOVE superworms!! Their favorites are probably wax worms or hornworms though. As for breeding insects i’ve had really good luck with superworms living on oatmeal for substrate and to kinda munch on and i feed gutloading vegetables and one of my little tricks is BEE POLLEN!!! It makes them so healthy and full of vitamins, also they seem to love them! I’ve really found that variety and vegetables like squash, zucchini, carrots, and greens such as collards, turnip, and mustard greens. (i feed everything listed to my super worms and the beetles as well and i’ve noticed doing variety and adding bee pollen really made a difference and they seemed to breed more and definitely seemed healthier.)
