Your best bet would be to email Rob and ask him about shipping. I would start with just one container to make sure he will eat them. Rob tries to put various sizes in each container. If your dragon is full grown he should be able to eat a large hornworm. They all have the potential to grow to 4 inches. The warmer you keep them the faster they grow but do not put them in the fridge. If kept in the 80’s they seem to double almost overnight. Have you tried earthworms? Then there’s silkworms and phoenix worms. All are a good choice. I wouldn’t give to many waxworms. They are very fatty and not a good staple food. There’s butterworms too but my dragons didn’t seem to be to crazy for them.

I’ve ordered from Wormman.com, Newyorkworms.com, Mulberryfarms.com and several others. Just go ogle what worm or larva your looking for and you,ll get lots of sites Not sure if the weather would stop the shipping. Just ask before ordering. Make sure they guarantee live delivery. Most of them will replace one shipment if it arrives dead.
