Trouble switching to bigger feeders

[aronoiiel]

Hello all. I am a bit frustrated with my not so little girl. Not sure on age but have had her for 3 months now. She is around 15 1/2" long and weighs 250g. I finally got her on the 3/8" dubias from dubia roaches.com (she was eating their extra smalls forevee lol) but cant get her on crickets bigger than the smalls at petsmart. I have tried a couple larges and she wont eat them. Am I trying to increase her bug size to fast? I know the rule of thumb is no bigger than the space between their eyes and the larges seem ok size wise. But she doesnt seem to want bigger prey than bite sized. Im just worried she isnt getting enough nutrition from the little things. She wont even est the large bsfls so she gets a ton of smalls still. Is she just being stubborn?

I would keep her on the dubias- she may not like crickets- the dubias are better for her anyway -

Oh she loves her crickets just the small ones not the big ones. She is on dubias and bsfls most the time crickets are just my in between feeder cause I cant seem to get my shipping times right between when we run out and get more. Im not good with those things. Should I not worey about big size if she is eating smaller ones then?

It's hard to say why she's not eating them - keep feeding the size she'll eat-- it's not gonna hurt her- the last thing you want is her impacted from them
