The best worms for any reptile are pheonix worms (2 month shelf life) and silk worms (feed mulberry leaves daily or put in fridge for about a week). They are the highest in calcium and vitamins of all the feeder worms and very soft. Wax worms for an occasional snak. They are very high in fat and protein and will bulk up an under weight lizard fast.

There are crickets that don't chirp? Never heard of this either. Are they a special kind of cricket?
