Oversized Bsf larva

[shay Rehder]

So I just discovered these Bsf larva in my (what I thought was a failed attempt to breed Bsf) breeding boxMy Bsf larva(big one) compared to what I bought online my mind has just been blown!!!!
Has anyone else seen or experienced this (the smaller ones are what I had ordered which was supposed to be the largest size they have) I’ve never seen or knew that they could grow this large! I had used all organic material and had given up on breeding them so I had completely forgotten about it until I went to clean the breeding box out.

So you successfully bred them or you just grew them bigger? Because I used to grow mine bigger how to get a little cricket pin put a layer of Dave's organic. whole grain bread at the bottom with pumpkin or squash Gerber baby food and after a week or two they're like triple the size. I would just burp it daily then you take them out with a strainer rinse them down and Bam.

I apparently did both without knowing and I didn’t think that they could get that big I haven’t found anything online that says that they can grow to that size

yeah try out that baby food and bread has to be organic whole grain though so beardie can eat them. Its really amazing man there use to be a walkthrough by a member on here thats where I got the idea. what were you doing to actually breed them?

Not much just what I found online… I used old fruits and vegetables as well as food from the fridge I also had worms and mealworms in there afterwards not knowing that there were any Bsf eggs (which the larva ate) in it so I’m going to try to recreate the same environment as before and see how it goes
