Default morio worms

He wont eat his morio worms..... are there any other nice filling live foods that I can try him on he has tried wax worms but doesnt like them either. He is a 4 month old beardie. I have tried taking their heads off and he will occasionally eat the odd one but I feel so bad killing them especially if he wont eat them.

thanks for reading x

4 months old is way too young to be feeding morios to a beardie. Unless they're smaller ones that you breed yourself. Have you tried roaches?

I was adivesed to get morios :S ok well once they are finished I will not get any more. he seems to be eating them fine though he is about 12 inches long now ( the beardie) he jsut doesnt seem to keen on them.

He was on crickets and just reacently changed to locusts. The place I get his food from do not do roaches

yep, they good source of calcium and the exeskeleton on dubia's is softer compared to other roaches so easier to digest, hope that helps x
