i can never picture superworms crawling up a ceramic bowl to get food, isnt that too slippery? I really dislike the idea of chemical water gel. Love the father/daughter cooperation and the solid southern energy.
I love and appreciate the scripture at the end! I love seeing other Christians represented in the hobby. May God continue to bless you and your family.

Superworm frass is a great soil amendment for gardens. Unlike high nitrogen compost like chicken manure, worm frass will not burn up plants if it is applied directly to them.
Great video again guys.
Great tip, and thanks so much Katrina! :)
Castings?
If you're really allergic to the frass then you should be wearing a respirator rather than a cheap dust mask, the difference can be night and day.
I'm so glad for this. I keep seeing people using grains and I've used grain in the past, but I have had grain mites for such a nightmare. Thank you for mentioning wood shavings!
I use wood shavings for mine too! I’m never using oats again,due to those horrid mites.
Yup, I made that mistake unfortunately.
Thank you for this! I needed this exact video!
That's awesome, glad to be of help!
What a wonderful informative video!!! Thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love this idea. Thanks so much
Great information here... answered all my questions simply and clearly. Thanks guys...
Superworms are great but I won't go back from Dubia roaches! ;)
Awesome intro!
Editor says THANK YOU!! :)
Your videos are super helpful!! I enjoy them a lot. Just wondering when and how to properly clean bearded dragon femoral pores. I have been reading online but different resources say different things.
Good stuff as always!
Appreciate that! Thanks for watching :)
Thank you this video it was very helpful 😊
I love watching your videos, they help me a lot with my Alex
Perfect!!! Thank you!
Welcome!! :) Thanks for watching!
That's a really interesting take on super worm care and I'll have to try it out. I've been battling pantry moths every time I've kept super worms on oatmeal, so this should certainly help with that problem. Are the pine shavings safe for insects, though? I know that a lot of animals develop rashes or get sick, or even die from prolonged exposure to pine or cedar wood, and I know they repel certain insects. So I just wanted to confirm its safety before using pine shavings myself.
Yay! Thank you!
Our pleasure!
Thank you!

Just discovered your awesome videos and headed over to your website. Unfortunately, I live in Canada and you do not ship to Canada. Sad.
Good stuff!
We appreciate it!!

Can you do a breading superworms video,thanks for sharing
Great suggestion!
God bless you and your family sir. Can you do a video for someone who perhaps wants to start a business kinda like yourself? Like what you had to do to get to where you’re at all that kinda stuff. Thank you very much 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Great suggestion! We'll keep it in mind for sure, thanks for watching!
How long can those water gels stay good in the jar for after you mix it?
Speaking of insects drowning in shallow water. Had placed meal worms on dragons plate of greens. There was a thin layer of water on the plate and some how the water wrapped around the warm and drowned it while out of the water.
Right here is where I should plug our Insect Watering Gels available on our website. Plug, shamelessly inserted in comment section...
@@ColdBloodCreations lol, dont blame you, yeah i have some myself
Do you have a video on how to clean the colony and how often?
Hi there .. I am so happy to have found your videos..they are so helpful. I am struggling with my bearded dragon and I am hoping you can help me. This is my 2nd bearded dragon.. I have had him for about a month or so..he is around 7 months old. He is mean..
Every time I enter his cage he attacks me.. and don't even think about holding him without a glove. His mouth remains open..his neck turns black. When I try to change out his food dish he bites.. lunges at me or the dish. He has caught me a couple of times and drew blood..hence the glove. Can you advise me as to what I can do.
I really enjoy the dragons..we had so much fun with the last one.
We were able to let him run about the house..and let him go out to the back yard and run about.
I'm getting itchy eyes and stuffed up just watching this 😂 I'm one of those that suffer with major allergies to super worms and crickets!
How about dried mealworms or superworms do you recommend it ? I saw some of bd keepers using it as food for their bd
Mashed orbeez work for the water gels too
is there an issue using pine shavings when you are feeding the superworms to your bearded dragon. I was told no pine around my dragon at all.
thanks to your videos.
I'm interested in growing worms as dog food!!!! Any ideas?
Go for it!
Hey love the videos❤️ do you have a link to a good site for super worms and chrickets
Thank you! :) And we highly recommend Ghann's Cricket Farm: www.ghann.com/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw6-SDBhCMARIsAGbI7Uh-AeSZfFZtY2JB1g_yT12MQtu9k_F2JTr8jcHj7OTJKBANE9sFFp0aArowEALw_wcB
How the superworms reach the food and water in the bowls if they are in the beddings? Is it difficult for them to crawl first to egg trays then jump into the bowl of food and water separately?
hello, after how long do I have to separate the larvae so they can become beetles?
PLEASE ANSWER
I have a juvenile dragon. I’m feeding him 10 roaches and 10 superworms a day. He prefers roaches but I can’t afford to buy any more than 200 a month. So I feed him these twenty bugs five days a week along with salad greens. Is this enough?
If I don't have insect water gels sold in my country, what can I do? With what can I replace insect water gels?
Sorry, I don't understand spoken English, what is the function of wood chips or how to use them?
Do you breed these? If so, what’s your method?
I have a 20 gallon beardie tank I got from petsmart,what length and watts uvb light do I need?it also has that metal mesh lid on top
I hope I can help, I dont know about the watts uvb light for the length of it, but I do know its more recommended to have about a 40 gallon tank to start so the bearded dragon can have a basking side, and a cool side.
Hello! Does the frass get cleaned out of the containers within the year you have them?
every month we dump frass...
About how many superworms is sufficient for an adult bearded dragon per feeding?
can I keep superworms and mealworms in the same tank
How can I get ground squirrels out of my yard
Welp. I am keeping and breeding Dubia Roaches for my dragons but I dont feel its ideal. So switching to Super Worms might be an idea.
I'm still having trouble with step 1 beating the ants... they bite too damn hard
Thanks buddy’s Ricky 💃🕺🏼🎶🐈⬛🎸🐊💥😎🪳✌️
Hello, I was wondering if you knew if it's safe to feed about a 3 and a half month old bearded dragon silk worms?
I don't really know who to trust anymore with pet stores because one says something if fine, and the other says its terrible.
@@christopherburstein296 As long as the worms are no larger than the distance between a dragons eyes, go for it. You just don't want to feed a small dragon a giant meal.
@@ColdBloodCreations Thank you.
In your experience, what are the foods that bring the best results, such as bigger and fatter worms?
This is the best food we ever used:

What type of substrate is that? I’ve been using oatmeal
It is a fine wood shavings. You CAN use oatmeal, but the worms will poop in it if you use for a substrate. We like to keep the kitchen seperate from the bathroom if you know what I'm sayin...
Can 3 month bearded dragons eat mealworms
Everytime I purchase superworms, they chew through the plastic
How do you clean the poop?
You dont. You remove the worms to a clean set up as needed and throw the poop on yout garden.
we live next to an ant colony, and every time we keep super worms, the ants eat them.
How do you take care of ants attacking your super worm?
I got my superworms Karate lessons...
Ei your setup is not for the superworms larvae that setup its for the beatles
Jesus Loves all of you guys
