Hi,

I live in Florida and was wondering if I could get an online recommendation for where to buy discoid roaches, our local stores don't carry them. I searched the forums, but most of the results were older - not sure if it's the same recommendations now :)

How many roaches should I feed my 15mo female dragon?

Current feeding:

Collard Greens
5-6 Crickets 5-6x a week
1-2 small blueberries as a treat, 1-2x a week

Thank you!

Also, super grateful for all the advice here. We're slowly but surely upgrading her tank, but here is a picture of Fiona (Shrek).

Any recommendations on how much to feed?
Feed as many as the dragon will eat in a 10-15 min time span for a baby adults are different - the size of the roach will determine how many they eat -- if too small they will eat a lot if appropriate size maybe 5-6 not sure -- are you feeding salads as well -- any other worms ? this will also determine how many they eat

I give her collard greens every day, it varies how much of it she eats out of her bowl, but quite a bit.

Does size matter when they're adults? Since the roaches full size are about an inch or bigger?

A full adult dragon can eat large or extra large roaches- I don't like the ones w/ wings which are males so I feed the size under that - I just feed as they eat them - when they stop chasing to eat I quit-

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
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
