    Questions from a Dubia Owner

    Well a few years back, I made the great choice of purchasing a few hundred Dubia to start a colony. I will never regret that decision! I'm hardly active on these forums, and honestly spend less and less time with my beardies, being in highschool is quite time consuming. I think I will be...

    Adult beardie not eating, basking, or bowel movement.

    It's been around a week since Joyce's last bowel movement. She used to take a bite or two of the butternut squash I offered her, and now even this has come to a halt. She hasn't eating a dubia in roughly a week, and it's now day 3 of zero food. I offer her water, and bathed her in warm water to...

    Discoids with Dubias

I guess I mixed them up because now I have 20 or so full grown big discoids crawling around with my dubias, and who knows how many nymphs and babys with the dubia. Will this be a problem? having discoids and dubias growing...

    Female layed infertile eggs

    Today I came home, and found around 10 yellowish eggs sitting inside my beardies tank. She lives on Non-Adhesive shelf liner.

    Roach colony moving along slowly...

    I bought 150 mixed dubia 5 months ago. Around the 1 month marker I was seeing babys, I thought I would have a sustainable colony in no time. Now, I have many many large nymphs but after cleaning out the bin, I haven't seen any babys for at least 2 months. I know they are not in there, because I...

I went to petco and got a 40 gallon breeder ($40 yay) and bought a screen lid ($26 NOT YAY!!). I then went to lowes and bought some Duck brand...
