Best Feeder

[jpzdude]

Hey everyone, recently a lot of the crickets I have ordered are dying within a month and my beardie is slowly growing more reluctant to eat them. What is another feeder that is not too expensive and provides great health benefits while also being appetising to the beardie? Thanks!

Dubia roaches would be my next stop. They are easy to breed and care for.

Crickets have a pretty short lifespan so they tend to grow and die within a month or two. A lot of people use dubia roaches. You can order them and feed them like crickets, or you can start a self sustaining colony. You could also use Phoenix Worms as a main feeder, but that would be a more expensive option.

If your dragon is over 16" you can try super worms. They roughly go for the same price as crickets. Dubia are the way to go for the little ones, its much cleaner and less smelly that crickets and they wont die like crickets often do. Start up for a colony is a bit pricey but worth it in the long run.

I use super worms as a treat but dubia roaches as the main staple. Way easier to care for than crickets with less smell
