Lol ....you tube is great. I just have a Rubbermaid tub, about 15 egg crate flats and a large heating pad at the moment. They eat whats leftover from my beardies salads, some roach chow (I ordered it), and some Apple and potato chunks. They're pretty easy so far. I like that they're not killing each other or dying off. Haven't found but a couple dead ones.

I also ordered my dubias off Amazon. Expensive to start, but will pay itself off in no time. I'm sure they have then cheaper other places. I was just in a hurry to be rid of crickets!! Lol

I think it must have bit her.

 

[hey where's Perry]

But what if a cockroach got loose in your house?.
Wouldn't that be like getting an infestation of cockroaches?
What is the financial benefits?

 

[hey where's Perry]

My husband says thst if he were getting bit by the crickets it would hurt and Perry would wake up. I don't believe him he thinks he knows everything and he never did anything to research bearded when Santa brought him.
Perry is now 13 inches and someone at petco told him he we only need to feed him like 10 crickets a day. I also give Perry greens every day which he also eats. When I feed him he gets like 30 crickets a day split into 2 meals. He would probably eat more if I gave him more.

The dubias, if loose, wouldn't do much. Hide until they died essentially. They can't breed and infest in normal house climates. Which is the awesome thing about them!

Well yeah - that and they dont stink. Dont make noise. Cant climb. And breed like well - roaches!

They're great in every way....except that it's still a bug lol but I'm the one who decided to get multiple animals that require them.
