Pixies Throwing Up Calciworms?

[Mentat]

Myself would stop using any feeder that causes a frog to throw it up. Frogs have to evert their stomach to throw out food and if they can't accommodate it back, can be dead within minutes .

Re you sure they are being thrown up? The first time my bullfrog got calci worms they kept reappearing in his bowl and they were alive. I waited and it turned out he was pooping them out not long after eating them.

These arent alive and I dont think they could poop them out whole like that. The worms were dead and whole. I just dont know why it's just the calci-worms, it's weird!

I've already decided not to feed these worms anymore, to much risk for my little froggies lives! They dont seem to like the worms that much anyway!

Good decision but trust me they can poop them out whole. I witnessed my baby doing it.

Calciworms/Pheonix worms have alot of chitin and are not a good feeder like mealworms. They cannot be digested and this is why they come out whole.
