[QUOTE="MatthewM1, post: 27748, member: 3019"] While mealworms high chitin and fat content makes them an unhealthy staple diet for herps, there's no solid evidence that it is the same for T's. Many people use them as the staple of their T's diet without issue. I don't use them often personally but that's only because I enjoy keeping roach colonies so much and have more roaches than than all my critters could eat if they tried, not because of any dietary concerns. The beetles are fine to feed off, but I've heard they seem to get ignored by some. Or just keep them and start a little colony [/QUOTE]
