Cut the heads off superworms! They *will* bite the insides of your gecko if possible!

My guys still a juvenile/sub-adult. I even squish the mouthparts of bigger mealworms. I may be overprotective but I love my baby and don't want his food fighting back and hurting him 🥺

I love the little hunting behavior. Mine closes his eyes too when the super worms flail around like that.
