dom,

If you are looking for bulk, try www.rainbowmealworms.com. Otherwise, try your local exotic or reptile pet stores near you. They can get pretty pricey after a while. I think I pay 5.00 for 100 lg mealworms locally. With two breeding females, they go through them darn quick.

Hope this helps....

: : i remember some time ago someone mention a place to get meal worms...i realized that i haven't been putting too much protein in my babies diet and crickets are a pain to do more than once a week....if anyone could tell me where i can get them it i would be greatly gratefull.

: Dom,

: Any pet store that has crickets should have mealworms too. I'm not sure where you live at, but if there are any fishing bait shops around you, they would have them. Make sure that the meal worms are alive and actively squirmy. Milo never liked mealworms, but he ate the crap out of crickets. He ate them like corn on the cob.

: Thank you very much for the sweet reply regarding Milo.

: Good luck! If you cannot find any mealworms in your area, I'd be happy to mail some to you.
