The superworms and crickets are relatively the same thing as mealworms, same composition. If your going to use them for a beardie, gut load them real well and use them only like once or twice a week.

what do you gut load them with? veggies i'm guessing?

At the moment he's 3.5 inches long and is in a 4ft x 1.5 ft x 1.5 ft (around 250 litres)

I've read he will grow to 2 foot! when he does get BIGGER I'll house him in a bigger tank

It's my dream for him to have his own room in my house so that I can convert half the room into a tank :)
