This type of insect burrows into the ground and has a soft exoskeleton that is ideal for reptiles. If you are looking to feed your pet a healthy and natural meal, you may want to try earthworms. A healthy diet includes fresh, frozen, or freeze-dried superworms. To avoid these problems, you should feed superworms once a week or every other day. This is because superworms contain a great deal of fat, and overfeeding your pet can lead to digestive problems such as regurgitation and gut impaction. When using superworms as feeder insects for leopard geccos, it’s important to know the nutritional value of the food.

They’re also middle-of-the-road when it comes to nutritional value, while Phoenix worms and hornworms offer a more complete diet. While they’re perfectly safe to use on occasion, it’s better to stick to crickets or Dubia roaches, which are the two most common species for geckos.

Although superworms are a great source of protein, minerals, and fiber, they are not suitable for regular feeding.
