Mealworms

[Baby Grrr]

Hey everyone I want to know, can syrians eat mealworms

[Diego Rodriguez]

yes......................

[Spot]

from what i have read on the forum from other clever people the answer is Yes like Diego says but its better to use freeze dried and not fried (bird ones) .

Im sure some other clever people can explain more, but i know for sure meal worms are in some food mixes, but unsure on quantity allowed

The fried ones are the most commonly found in shops but they're very fatty. If you're going to buy the ones in the packet (as opposed to tinned or even live ones) make sure to read the label and get the dried ones.

Thank you I wasn't very sure if I was right or not

[Thin Lizzy]

What kind are you thinking of getting?

[Baby Grrr]

I was only asking what it (in a not mean tone)

I seem to remember Cypher saying freeze dried ones are best. I haven't tried it myself yet although Charlie has had the odd dried cricket (uurgh!). Live mealworms are a no no as apparently they have jaws and can bite hammies. Seriously!
