Because Internet insects are so much less expensive, I was hoping to go that route next time. But for mealworms, that means purchasing 500 at a time, and I only have one little gecko! Initially for saving on shipping costs, I was hoping to get 100 phoenix worms, and 500 mealworms. I know this might just not be possible with their little bug life-spans.
I wanted to ask if I should purchase a size or two smaller of the worms to buy more time to use them over the course of 3 months or so (so far 100 large ones have lasted us 3-4 weeks). I do currently refrigerate the worms to help with this too.
For the meantime, I'm not really interested in breeding feeders; I also hate crickets and am grossed out by roaches, so will probably stick to the calci worm and mealworm route for now.
Thanks for any suggestions!
