Feeding piles of dirt......

Hello, I have had my 3 little spoodles for two weeks now and I've been feeding them twice a week. (mealworms, heads smooshed) My G. Pulchra is eating because the worm is always gone when I check. The G. Pulchripes, sometimes the worm is gone, other times there's just a shell left. The T. Vagan, sometimes there's a shell left, or the worm is left. If there are hallow worm shells/husks left, does that mean the T's still had some dinner? Or did the worm dry up? Little anxious because I never see these guys at all. Again, piles of dirt.

Whenever I've fed meal worms typically there is not much of anything left if the T consumed the worm. The mealworms could be molting and this is the husk's your finding. With that said, you say you smash their heads though. Are you sure the worms are completely dead??
