Nope, none of my Syrians like them. Though, I just gave Taylor one and she took it from me, started eating it, spat the bit she ate out, dropped the rest, picked it back up, took another bite, spat and repeated. I guess she wasn't sure

My Syrian will only nibble on one before dropping it and picking a different treat.

Both my Syrians love dried meal worms, I hide a couple in their cages everyday and they always hunt them out and eat them like they're starving and haven't been fed in a week lol
Dried crickets however are a very different story, they won't go near those.

I think it depends on the Syrian hamster. My Syrian hamster will eat the dried mealworms- I have not tried any other types. She didn't eat them first offer, but eats them now.

Java and Pekoe are horrified by the thought of meal worms. Chai, I didn't see, but hers was gone.

Darissa turned her nose up, haven't tried them with the babies. I find Syrians don't enjoy them as much.

Feed them to the wild birds, they will love them I always feed mealworms to the birds along with fatballs and seed
I had a bagful of dried crickets, boy did they smell, no wonder the hamsters wouldn't go near them lol the wild birds enjoyed those too
