Ok. Gotta start breeding and stop spending $ on feeders lol! Tips on breeding crickets, dubias, Phoenix worms, etc? How to keep them from smelling like DEATH? Any and everything is helpful haha :)

Crickets are going to stink either way. Dubias are much better smell wise and noise wise. The key is to keep the cricket bins clean by giving them a good clean out a couple of times per week. A roach bin doesn't need to be cleaned very often though and is generally much less maintenance. Here is some info about how to get that started https://www.southtexasdragons.com/dubia-roaches.html

Never done crickets but I keep my dubia and my superworms together in a tank with a soil substrate, branches and leaf litter. The smell is minimal.

I have my BSFL (summer only) outside - they reek. Composter buckets are super easy to make (mine was probaly $10 innparts) and as long as you keep them fed they breed.

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.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
