Hello, I was browsing fancy worms at the pet store and decided to get a hornworm for my gecko... appropriately sized so he wouldn't choke.. I decided to save it overnight for the next day so the gecko would be nice and hungry and I would get a nice gut squirt!

However... the next night when I checked the worm's little cup.. it had like exploded and squirted his guts all over!! kinda gross.

Any idea why? it had this mossy thing the pet guy gave me to keep it moist/fed... I would kind of know how to keep it alive since those suckers are $1.50 a pop!

any help is appreciated. thanks!

Wow thats i weird! Yeah I have no clue how that would happen. Without saying the name, can you get horn worms at chain pet stores?
