In Reply to: about waxworms and gutloading... posted by Kaitlyn on April 28, 2003 at 14:36:34:
Hi- I dont use wax worms, I use silkworms and crickets. This is what I have read on how to keep them. They will eat a mix of bran, honey, and if you have it bees wax. Place this over the bottom of the container, and they will feed and bed in it. The temp should be room temp 60F+. If you have alot of them you can keep some in the frig for a few weeks. Like I say I have never kept them nor have I fed them so I dont have first hand experiance. Hope this hepls!

:I have started to purchase waxworms for my jax and veiled, and i need to know how to properly feed and house them. I ordered them from LLL Reptile, and they come in a container with wood shavings. Do i keep them in this substrate? Or just keep them in a substrate-free container? Also, what can I feed them so they won't get wet or turn black and die? Thanks for any info, i can keep crickets just fine, but all my worms keep on dieing or losing weight and I don't know why. I have tried lettuce and dry cereals, but i don't know if that is what i should feed them.
:Thanks,
