Hi =0), I normally feed my adult leo mealworms too but I have fed her large Pheonix Worms. She loved them. I didn't gut load them but I did dust them. Evil Neo was happy and I had no problems. I hope this is helpful. In a message dated 7/19/2008 6:18:14 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
My leos are used to being fed mealworms, and as you probably all know, there is a national shortage of them right now and none can be had anywhere in stores or online. Are Phoenix Worms a safe substitute? If so, what size would an adult leopard gecko need (small, medium or large)? Also, the website (www.phoenixworm.com) states that gutloading is not necessary with them -- is this accurate? And would they need to be dusted with the Repashy Calcium + ICB, as i've been doing with my mealworms, or would that give them an OD of calcium, since the Phoenix Worms are higher in calcium (again, according to the website)? Thanks for your help.
