how often and how much to give 'treats' wax worms etc to my new guys?

i have looked up but haven't found anything as to how often to feed waxworms to emperor scorps i know they are suppose to be a treat but how often do you give a treat to a scorpion? and is it only one worm and some crickets or can you give 2-3 for a meal ?

I don't bother with them but if you are going to use them I would do it once every few weeks, much better to give them healthy gut loaded crickets, I always give my crickets some veg and water also I've had the worms burrow away which is annoying as hell and they then turn into a pupa which then grows into a beetle lol better to vary their diet with locusts and roaches I say

+1.

I usually feed my emp superworms once every few months just to vary it's diet. Crickets or roaches should make up most of a scorpion's diet.

It's been a while since I've seen you on here, Bex.

thanks! what kind of roaches?

B. lateralis is one of the most common choices due to their softer exoskeleton, easiness to breed and adult size.
