Makes sense. Even animals know when they're dinner selection is overly redundant. Though they may not cognitively approbate it like we do, they sure are aware.

A varied diet is the best diet. Pinkies are an okay addition, though I wouldn't go any bigger in terms of rodents. One a week is a sufficient treat. Larger, but not too large, insects should be provided as well. Large crickets, small roaches, baby hornworms, silkworms, occasional butterworms, and fresh fruits (raspberries have a good natural calcium amount).

As for giant mealworms, I would recommend normal mealies and/or superworms instead. Giant mealworms are just normal mealworms on steroids. Some people just don't like the sound of that. I can be quite the hypochondriac myself, lol, so if you can avoid them to be safer than sorry, why not?



Here you can get silkworms, hornworms, and orange head roaches
Here you can get butterworms
Best supers, crickets, and waxworms I've ever ordered
