    what are super worms?

    I saw a sign at the pet store down the street saying that they now sell Super Worms. I asked if i could feed it to my little guy and if they were poisonous but the lady didn't know anything about them. I was wondering if anybody knew what they were. And they didn't have them out to see so I don't even know what they look like. *Nelda*

    They are the larvae of Zophobas morio, a beetle. Sort of like mealworms.

    They are really easy to raise, as they do not turn into beetles as easily as meal worms. That and the gecko seem to like them.
