Black Soldier Flies **Video**

[everhood13]

So, apparently Sid has not been eating the reptiworms I put in his tank and several pupated and emerged past night. I was just wondering if anyone had heard any harm from feeding them to a dragon. Iksar happily ate two of the flies. Are these still nutritional for them. Thanks!

Hi can't remember where i read it but someone did say that they are still good feeders when they turn into flies. Also the reason they don't feed them as flies is because they are harder to catch

This.
they are fine, just harder for beardies to get

The funny thing is that she catches them easier than crickets. I don't know if it is because she can hear them, or what, but she catches them mid air!

Yeah, that must look awesome xD

It really is stinkin' cool to watch. She is quite the little huntress! I will have to see if I can magic up a video. She doesn't see well, so it seems she tracks them by ear until she can get close enough to see them! :twisted:

Isn't that adorable! and great exercise too I bet :lol:

aw that video is brilliant!

I love the part about 35 seconds in where she slowly stalks the fly and then pounces. It reminds me so much of a cat. And I still think it is so cool to watch her snag them out of the air. It is so much cooler in person! :love5:

That's nothing I catch fly's all the time with chopstick. I can also shoot the wings off a fly!

That's awesome though
