Mealworm dish

[calabarpythonlover2]

I use a yellow saucer for feeding mealworms and i know the mealworms cant get out on their own but the problem is whenever my gecko goes back to her hide she will kick the mealworms out of the dish then the mealworms will go and eat her poop which if she eats those she could get infected with a disease
and the saucer is big and the sides are slippery what should i do,should i change the mealworm dish or what

Find a dish that has higher sides. Just make sure that it's not so high that your gecko cant get in there easily...

These work perfect for mealies. I have some supers get out but mealies never do. The geckos also have no problem finding them in these dishes.

I use little $0.50 glass candle holders from walmart. They work great if you use no more that 30 meal worms at a time.

Only problem is you have to buy in bulk, unless the next page contains few. They look the same as Enigmatic posted though. Except the ones they posted are each. Never seen those though. I use a small water dish made for cats/dogs.

in bulk they are .20 each. The large dishes turned upside down make good hatchling humid hides too.

I understand what you mean I'm just sayibg in case youdont want to buy in bulk.

i have been trying different mealworm dishes but she doesnt want to eat out of them so i am really at a loss for what i should do because i want to get a dish that is reusable

I use pitri dishes. Cheap and reusable. Also they're clear which makes for good hunting from the gecko.

maybe we should just build a fence. With a little handle and lock to keep all the mealworms in and when the Gecko wants to eat, can just unlock the door. haha
