Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Roach chow
Anyone know if it would be good to grind up Zoo meds Adult bearded dragon food pellets for B. dubia roach chow? I heard of using dog or cat food but I don't think I would want my dragons consuming that.

Thanks for the reply. Yea I have read that too. Just figured since my beardies won't eat the pellets, why not grind them up and gut load my insects with it.

I don't know how many dubia you keep but that would get very expensive for me and 2000 adult dubia. This is what I do, i rase keep and breed my dubia on a mix of chicken feed, dog food, oatmeal, rabbit pellets ect ect all ground up. When it is time to feed the dubia to my dragons i re gut load the dubia im going to feed off for 2-3 days with fresh veggies and fruit and yes bearded dragon pellets work good also. This system seems to work good for me I have read that some animal proteins in dog and cat food are not good for dragons and chameleons.

I've used ground rat feed with no problems. Right now, I am using chick feed that was given to me by someone local and it raves. I think you can get it from a local tractor or farm/feed shop.

I used Guinea Pig pellet food that you can get from pet stores, they are vitamin c fortified and i as water to it to make it into a mash and the roaches go crazy for it.
