Q: When will my worms ship? We ship Monday - Friday. You will be given a tracking number the day your order ships. Q: Should I refrigerate Phoenix Worms? Well, Maybe. Phoenix Worms can tolerate high temperatures but will have the best shelf life when stored at 50 to 60 degrees F. If you have a warmer spot in your fridge like the butter tray, this is often the perfect temperature. Although it's possible to "hold" worms for months when stored at 50 degrees, you should only order the number of worms that will be fed off within 3 weeks so your animal will have fresh food.
Q: Should I leave the top off of my cup of Phoenix Worms to give them air? The special cup must be kept closed to ensure a long shelf life. Your Phoenix Worms will be able to breathe in their cup we promise. Do not transfer the worms into another container for storage! Q: What is the sawdust-like stuff in the cups? Is this food for the worms?
Do I need to feed them anything? The packing material is an organic medium but it is not food. Phoenix Worms must not be fed; food added can spoil the bedding and cause growth of bacteria, fungus, and other problems.
Just add a few drops of water if the bedding if worms begin to appear too dry. Q: How do I get the packing media off the worms? Is it harmful if my pet eats it? Pour out the worms you plan to serve in a small dish and let them dry for a few minutes. The media will fall off the dry worms and you can easily blow away any residue that remains. The worms will float and the media will sink to the bottom.
Lift off the floating worms from the water surface with a hand strainer, pour onto a paper towel, and pat dry. Note: If your pet should accidentally ingest any particles, they are harmless. Q: How do you keep Phoenix Worms from climbing out of their dish? Just make sure you serve dry worms in a dry dish. Any moisture will enable Phoenix Worms to climb! You can also purchase our "No Escapee" Feeder dishes very inexpensively.
