    Default Why are bloodworms a no no?

    I have been feeding my ACFs reptomin, shrimp pellets and frozen blood worms for a while. But I'm reading on here blood worms aren't a good idea? Why is that? They seem to love them (though they love everything I think) thanks!

    Bloodworms aren't that nutritious and I think they lack calcium. A lot of herps will prefer bloodworms over most food so as an occasional treat it's fine.

    Thawed frozen bloodworms as part of a varied diet are OK . Freeze dried anything including bloodworms are not OK . Bloodworms are not the issue; it's the freeze dried product .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
