I bought too many silkworms, and ended up with about 50 pupating before they could be eaten. Lucky for me, all the geckos love the moths. It helps that the moths can't fly, so they're easy pickings for the leos.

Wow. I want to order some silkworms for my tarantulas as a treat but I am sure they would like the moths even more.

How long did it take before the turned?

Great leo.

It took about 2 weeks for them once they finished the cocoon. If you're in a hurry, keep them a bit warmer than room temps, mine were around 72 F.

how much do silk worms cost? Do all your leos like them?
