    Default Waxmoths?

    The only way I know to raise wax worms to moths is to not refrigerate them and wait but a lot die like that. Is there a guy or anything they show you how to breed them and keep more of them alive and what should I feed them

    They are easy to culture in honey,oatmeal and crumpled wax paper.
    No refrigerator !
    A frog forum search or internet search will find lots of instructions.

    Use a container lg enough to get your hand into.
    Once they start spinning - the moths are very annoying to get out / to be used for a feeder.

    Don't use a fr fly container....they will chew through the mesh in lid - not fun

    BUT...Frogs love the moths

    here's a guide:
