I have seldom seen a crestie eat silkworms, mealworms or superworms. Leopard gecko will eat all of the above without problems, but cresties, there must be something wrong, either the worms don't move in a way it attracts them, or something.

I wouln't use only silkworms as a staple diet. Variety is always best.

Plus, the main advantage with crickets, is you feed them many things, so their bodies have more vitamins ans supplies than a silkworm that only eat a certain thing will have.

I would use the silkworms and the crickets. Do not forget that your crestie will also eat babyfood or that crested gecko or gargoyle diet if he is of a young age.
