Hi everyone !We put a log in our coop and found out that it was full of termites!After chipping it open our birds filled them selves up on the tiny insects. Are temites safe to eat on a regular basis ?
Oh yeah, they'll love them.Great source of protein. When hubby chops firewood,we can't keep the chickens away.They love wood beetle larve,too.
this forum is a great place for beginners like me!! Does any body know of a reliable place to buy meal worms on line??
Not sure about online (but most any pet supply site). However, if you have a pet store nearby you would, most likely, be able to buy them cheaper there since you would save on shipping. I know most places will get things like that in bulk for you if need be.
I bought mine at http://www.wormman.com/pd_mealworms_shipped.cfm I started with 2000 now I have gosh knows how many.Great to have on hand for treats. They are easy to grow,too. http://www.wormman.com/mealworm_breeding.cfm
