I've heard they have great nutritional value
Here's their website
In my experience frogs don't go crazy for them. No harm in using them though.

Phoenix worms are great for Pacman Frogs because of their high calcium and low fat levels. Like John said though, Pacman Frogs usually won't go crazy over them. My old Pacman Frog never really cared alot about them because they usually don't squirm and wiggle, they just kind of wobble to move around. He would eat the worms when I left them in a somewhat tall dish (as they can escape from small dishes and get into the substrate).
If you are going to order Phoenix worms, I would recomend that you order them from Josh's Frogs. Not only do they have a great reputation and a site sponser, they can ship Phoenix worms with dry goods (unlike other live foods, phoenix worms live room temperature for several weeks)! That means you don't have to pay much at all for shipping and you can combine them with any other dry goods you want to order and not have to pay additional shipping! I got mine alive and happy.
Hope this helps.
I have fed phoenix worms to my other animals but I found that they are way too small for my pac. They would definitely make an excellent food source for baby pacs.
Oh ok, thanks for the advice guys !
Never the pacmans since they were way too small. Other amphibians I have.
Great worm ,but way to small for pacs,good for geckos.
