I had searched for answers to this question as well. I started out with a colony of 150 and have left them on their own for about 2 months. We have fed the male dubia's to our adult dragons. (we have 4) But there aren't enough males. The colony isn't big enough to keep feeding them. I just...

Okay You just let me know.

An hour west you say! LOL darn

How many totes are you using to house your colony, to supply your BD? I live in London and will be heading to Newmarket probably at Easter. If you don't get rid of the male roaches let me know. If you are on route I will take them off your hands

Thanks for the info. Did you find someone to take the males off your hands? Can the adult male roaches be fed to adult dragons?

Good Morning Having never fed with roaches I have no idea .. lol ..but after reading a few threads I see that they are the same as feeding crickets. Just sort out the sizes and feed them. Have you found it difficult to start a roach colony and keep it going? I would like to try, having given...

I was wondering how the Dubia are for raising? I have 6 BD babies and 4 BD adults to feed. Can I feed the roaches to the babies? They are eating 3/8 to 1/2" crickets at the moment.

So in the summer when it gets to hot what system do you have going? Just UVB?

That is good to know. I had read about the eye problems with the reptiglo. Since starting to use the MegaRay I haven't noticed any significant changes. I am going to get the Reptaid when the next good paycheck comes.

I use Zoo Med 5.0 36", not to sure what the "T" measures are for but I think its a T12..? I have bought a ReptiGlo 2.0 and my son told me that it was not strong enough. I will use it in the event of an emergency. There recently was a reptile expo here so I bought a MegaRay.

I am in London. I had a girlfriend cancel going with me cause she thought the snow was to bad to drive in. My son and his girlfirend and 2 mth old baby came with me. It was very packed .. I got what I went for and left. Did you get anything?

Well how did you enjoy the Expo. I have been twice and it has been Jam packed with people. I wondered if it would be better the earlier you go.

i know the pet stores in our area do boarding of reptiles. A vet that looks at exotics will probably board as well. I am lucky enough to have a lady at work that does house and pet sitting.

I am curious to know how long salmonella survives under UV lights? Are there actually facts saying that BD's has salmonella? I agree with the others. Get as much information as you can from Vets, Breeders and Herp Keepers. And go armed with a clean bill of health on your bearded dragon from your...

Here is the first picture of the babies. So far we have had 11 hatch.
