Superworm feeding

[Russellm0704]

I just received 500 supers from grubco and they all came alive and well, I out a huge carrot in there yesterday and it is all gone! How often do you guys have to change the carrots in your superworm tub? I'm using oat bran as a substrate

alot of people i read feeding dubias and supers here dont really have the chore of swapping out old for new because those things chow down and finish everything like me!.

Only one piece of veggie at a time, if not the oat bran can get moldy and make your geckos sick.

Usually when they first arrive they are starving, they usually don't eat so much.

Thanks guys, I've found 4 or 5 dead ones already, hope this isn't the trend

Shouldn't be, As long as they have moisture and and food they will live. Even without food they should live. Make sure it is not too cold or too hot. My 1000 survived 2 weeks in post and 2 months so far, they are still alive with around 260 left, I have yet to have one die.

What would be considered as too cold?

Room temperature is fine, but I wouldn't recommend anything below 65.
