Hey guys,
I'm planning on getting a bearded dragon, but my parents don't like crickets because they make noise, and from what I've noticed from my friends crickets (he has a beardie) they smell horrible. I'm not a fan of roaches and I highly doubt my mom is either.
I was wondering what are some alternatives to those staple feeders?
I've looked at phoenix worms but I read that baby beardies can finish a whole tub of 100 in one sitting. That's a lot of money down the drain. I also read that silkworms can be good staple feeders as well. But what about the quantity to cost ratio? Is it the same as phoenix worms?
If perhaps the cost is too high for these feeders, I might reconsider not getting a beardie. It's not worth making its life miserable
