Worms! Worms! Worms!

@lokthaire said: where did you find/get reptile safe worms from? That's something I have wanted to get before but all the ones I've ran across are not a really safe source.

Truthfully I buy this brand from Walmart! 

I know that people have had problems with there reptiles getting parasites from this brand in the past. But I have been feeding Odin this brand for about 2 years now without any problems. That being said I wouldn’t recommend people go out and buy this brand unless they have the time and a way to check their reptiles stool samples every few months for parasites! Which I do with Odin every 3-4 months myself and once a year at the exotic vet during his yearly check up just to be on the safe side! I have had training on how to do this by one of my professors who was the leading parasitologist in Mississippi. Fun Fact!: He was also the parasitologist that worked on the red wolf reintroduction program in North Carolina in the late 1980′s!

Unfortunately I don’t personally know safe brands that can be bought offline. Many nightcrawler brands have to be bought in bulk and be kept at a cool temp like in the fridge which I unfortunately don’t have the space for. 

PS: Like I said before I don’t recommend this brand unless you can check your reptiles stool samples frequently, but I can’t stop people from buying this brand either so I say this to anyone who does decide to buy this brand anyways! This brand also has another type of nightcrawler that they sell that is injected with something that makes the worms green! I can’t remember what exactly it is but it does say in very small print on the side of that container *not pet safe*! So please read the whole container carefully before buying to make sure you are not buying the injected kind and check all of the worms before feeding them to make sure that none of them are green!

PSS: Also open the container and check the worms to make sure they are fat and healthy and that there is not any type of mold/fungus growing in the containers! The employees will put the oldest worms in the front when they get a new shipment in and sometimes not check to make sure the worms are still good!

I forgot to mention on here but I recently presented a poster on research I did on Odin’s species and Odin! I got a lot of great feedback on the poster and I really loved the research I did for this poster and I’m hoping to continue research like this in grad school in the future!
