I just started raising bsfl for my bearded dragon and im harvesting more than anticipated and more than rex can eat. My question is can i freeze some for use later. Any thoughts I'm still new to this. Thanks.

I suspect they will turn to mush...

What sort of setup are you using? I Want to culture them myself someday.

I guess I'll try freezing a tub of them for a month or so and see how they thaw. I don't think rex will mind that they aren't alive i just wondered about loos of nutrients.

I have absolutely no experience with your topic, but maybe putting the Black soldier fly larvae (these are the same as Phoenix worms, correct???) on wax paper, spread out so they aren't piled up on each other & repeat layering them on wax paper may prevent them from becoming a frozen together mess. Just an idea, have no idea if it will work but it would allow you to remove how ever many you want each time without having to thaw them all to unstick them.

Thawing tends to be the problem point for nutrient loss and for mushyness. Let us know how it goes!

If it doesn't work out could feed them to birds :)

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
