I have some hard stems left from cleaning asparagus for dinner. Can I throw those into my dubias bin?

Most things I do not give them are b/c they will either make the colony stink or be too *messy* or are toxic to our beardies, other than that, anything goes LOL

In the beginning I had 1/2 an orange develop the beginning of mold on it but I caught it fortunately!
Since then I am careful to only put what they will eat in a day or 3 at most. I did, however, put a screen in the top...before I just had holes drilled :roll:
Once I put the screen on and put mine in a closet as you have...they exploded. There are always at least 4 or 5 giving birth whenever I give fresh food
Sometimes I don't believe it is really me.....taking such good care of roaches! :laughing6:

Yep, about 33 days in a row OVER 100...I hate it. I believe that you should *Bloom Where You Are Planted*...but I don't want to bloom here any longer lol. Can't bloom. Too hot and all dried up except for my hair turning moldy :mrgreen:

Mine seem to be taking forever to turn into adults! Also, mine seem to eat very little. I'm confused. I mix dog food, cereal, and brown sugar and they don't seem to eat much. They just bury in it when I open the lid. Any advice or tips?
Thanks.
