Geez, I am really not trying to hijack this thread but I have similar questions, and guys, I'm on the fence here. I have one bearded dragon, 1yr 4mos old. I have only fed him phoenix worms, he just loves them, but they are so damned expensive. (I also give him collard and mustard greens) I keep hearing about the dubia roach. I think I finally have my wife convinced it will be cheaper in the long run. However I am curious on a few things,
How many Dubias and how often do you feed an adult beardie?
My wife would freak if I had to split the colony and make it colonies, I'd be sleeping with Dante outside I swear. So what do you guys recommend? I just need something small that will continue to reproduce and I can keep him fed, is that even possible? I'm afraid because you guys keep talking like these roaches breed like there is no tomorrow, and he wouldn't be able to eat them as fast as they reproduce.
Any help you guys can provide would be greatly appreciated.
