Waxworms To Go Pack

We ship To Go Boxes on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday each week via FedEx 2-Day Express! Live Arrival Guaranteed.

Waxworms have been a staple feeder item for decades and are an excellent food item to offer your reptiles. Waxworms are great for lizards and amphibians that are expending a lot of energy for growth,  you should not feed these exclusively instead offer them as a way to provide high energy to active animals or as a weight gain feeder if you find yourself needing to fatten up a thin animal. As a maintenance food, you can offer a few every week for variety and a well-rounded diet. Like most other common feeder items you should dust with a calcium powder each feeding and with a multivitamin every 3rd feeding.
