    Dubias okay for a young beardie?

    they are fine, but the problem is if they will eat them or not. I hear that most people's bd on here do love to eat dubias but some, like mine, pref. other feeders. If you're starting a dubia colony, why not start a colony of supers and meals as well? They are very easy, and over time you will...

    TOO much ventilation in Dubia bin?

    Yes it is possible. Bigger vents = less humid. You could try putting towel on some section of the vent to make it less. That also works. I'm not sure how many dubias you have but mine does not last a whole night. It's usually gone within 5 mins. They can usually last couple days without...

    Advice - Doesn't Like Roaches ?!?

    Well i guess it depends on your goal. I plan to have a couple thousands so i can sell it too. I don't have very many actually. I sold 200 2 weeks ago and i had very little left afterwards. I thought i had a lot, but i guess not. I think, the more you have, the better it is.

    Breeding supers

    Advice - Doesn't Like Roaches ?!?

    One thing that works for me is i use a a small bin that can fit in my 40 gal tank, but big enough for the roaches and the bd to hunt/pounce. I put it beside the basking spot so they get some heat while they eat. Leave the BD inside the bin and wait for like 30 mins or more. When you come back...

    Advice - Doesn't Like Roaches ?!?

    i got them april 20, but they hatched a week before. So that makes it a month old. I do worry about proper nutrition and the growth stunt, but at the same time i hate having a picky eater. They do eat the food i give them, but it's just not as much as i would like. And what i like is for...

    Advice - Doesn't Like Roaches ?!?

    I usually have to wait 4-6 days before they fully eat the food i give them when they're in the feeding bin. During this time, the only thing they would take is a couple sprays of water and some occasional baths. They would eat the roaches then go on this 4-6 days of fasting then eat again...

    Advice - Doesn't Like Roaches ?!?

    you could try the "starve" method? Don't feed them for a while and when you do feed them, they'll eat anything you throw at them. Works most of the time.
