 Couple questions..

just curious, it’s been a long time since i’ve seen one.. how big are pinkies? does anyone have any pictures for reference? i want to try enid on them, but i’m not sure as to the size.. i know they’re pretty small , but... how small?

how big was your wd when you started him/her on them?

and another question.. what are kingworms?.. are they anything like superworms?

enid loooves superworms, but where i live they’re not available and i find it kind of redundant to order them online with the rate that he eats.. but he’ll eat more superworms than crickets, so if kingworms are anything like superworms, i’d be happy to get someone to bring them in.. but i have no idea what they are lol

all that’s available to me is crickets and butterworms, which he’ll eat ONE of only when he’s desperately hungry to tide him over till i get ’better’ food

i’m sure i can find pinkies in a bigger area which i go to often, but kingworms are available only when i order them.. i want to know if it’d be a waste of time and money having them order these things for me if he’s not going to like them..

any info would be helpful, thanks!

Here are photos that should give you an idea of a pinky’s size: Link

Rule of thumb - if the food item fits between the dragon’s eyes, it is an appropriate size; that goes with pinkies as well.

Kingworms are superworms - they are the same thing: Zophobas morio.
