no one eats them!!!!!!!!!!!!! i still offer them on a daily basis, yet I'm feeling as if this is a ridiculous act in futility. any substitutes someone could recommend, oh and wax worms give me the same result. they are not into them as well. thanks peace to all................. ![]() |

Are they leopard geckos that you are speaking of?
With my leopard geckos, I put a few different types of worms together in a little bowl. The bowl has to be short so the gecko will notice the commotion. Superworms are super active so they stir up the mealies. The same works with waxworms too. Waxworms and mealworms are not exciting until I make them into a worm salad. ![]() |

Guinevere, one of my gargoyles has an issue with mealworms. He either eats them all or doesn't touch them. I believe it's due to their size but I haven't yet figure it out.
