It's official. I can feed roaches but I can't raise them. I can't do the big ones and have been having nightmares. Roaches, leaches and ticks have invaded my sleep. I opened up a brand new heating pad box for my BSFL tonight and winced as I stuck my hand in as if I was going to pull a bug out too.

I'm going to keep at it for the next few months while I go through a pound of roaches.... :/ I think I am going to sort them into big roaches she will never eat into one box, the medium to slightly too big for now ones in another box and then the tiny ones in another.
We live 100 miles away from our local pet food place, but go at least monthly to that town. From now on we will get 200 some small roaches, and a big box of crickets. I think I might try raising BSFL this spring. I found a video on making a compost bin for them that intrigued me. Also, we had to cut down an apple tree this year and were talking about planting another one in the spring. Instead I'm thinking about getting a mulberry tree 8)
So many things to try. Hopefully something sticks.
