Not sure id classify supers as a staple, maybe on occasion but definitely not and main staple. I find dubias to be easy to maintain and breed and more will tear then up quickly. May run into resistance on new dragons fed something else but will do well with them. Phoenix do well in terms of...

Yep alot of us will take if much cheaper then a vet, seen quite a few lately just preemptive :shock: dosing with pancur.

Mine is set in a larger tupperware box, we have a few, but this is our main breeding boxes. We run 11" flex watt to cover the entire bottom. We then cut a piece of Styrofoam and set over the flexwatt. We seal this up with the aluminum duct tape. Keeps the floor safe, and all heat in box +...

Thankfully no, I stick with my set up and don't change to anything new unless adding a new reptile. I did give them a quick look and with their reviews i personally wouldn't touch them too many complaints.

Tile works great. We use tile in all of our cages, non sanded grout. Very easy to clean and will last for ever. Even someone with no tile experience can use their stick down groutable tile squares. They are the much ticker and higher grade stick down tiles and will do fine with the cage temps...

Youll find them often on faunua, but tthey have a price tag to match. They do pop up though just need to keep an eye out

Mine usually start right around the end of the year. This is their first year in their new building, new temps and lots of windows we have some coming out the past few days, slowly but theyre waking up. The one im really waiting on is taking her sweet time.

Interesting, I hadnt thought of putting it on the outside, was going to put along the sides, inside. The cable I always had inside wrapped around the inside, taped with foil tape and brought the wire and probe in through the side.

Im curious and looking at redoing my set up. My colony has done well with your basic Zilla Temperature Controller/thermostat and exoterra heat cable. Unfortunately the other day my potbelly pig must have gotten bored and chewed the plug coming from the thermostat and Im needing to redo my set...

Common practice is to leave them on a damp paper towel in individual tubs for 24-48 hours inside the incubator

Yeah i started to read a few guides on silks, after every horn worm guide scared me away :-p I think ill read up on them a bit more and give it a try So Ill have plenty of variety of food all made by me ;) Supers dubias, reptis, and maybe silkworms

I like silks, and horns. Soft food, nutritious and most any dragon will eat them. They are just a bit pricey to keep around as anything more then the occasional treats, especially with so many dragons. I had thought about breeding silk and reptiworms just out of curiosity. I currently breed...

Yes I tend to go through quite a few phoenix worms when hatchling start coming out but their diet is ever changing. I personally have never bothered to purchase meals, I use supers where acceptable, much better nutritional value, more meat.

Id stay away from meals/supers exc at as a juve. A common rule of thumb is to wait until theyre 16" to feed them supers and other hardbodied insects. I used micro /smallersupers for some of the young ones but I wouldnt use it too much or as a staple some get picky and takes awhile to ween them...

Yes it would work just fine
