How to care for calci worms

They are best kept between 20-25c and feed some vegetables such carrot, potato etc. The tubs that we send them in are suitable to house them in and will prevent the flies from escaping.

When the worms are young they are a nice creamy white colour. They will turn to a brown or black colour just before they pupate in to flies. The flies are a good food to and provide a bit of a challenge to your lizard and are particularly good for chameleon target practice!

Soldier flies are very good food for mantis.
