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.

Putting the Cricket Before the Lizard
Hiya! I think I am very clever when I think of titles for posts~!
I currently do not have any animals (saving up for an AFT or two in the future) and was wondering if it would be silly to start setting up a breeding system for their feeding before purchase. I figured that if I decided to start breeding crickets / mealworms / or dubias it should be before I have an animal that way they have plenty of food and should I have excess I could always sell them locally (though profit really isn't the bottom line of this).
I dunno, has anyone else done this?
I have watched a lot of videos on raising feed and it seems fairly uncomplicated with the right tools and maintenance.

I would breed and feed dubias over crickets any day.
- They don't stink.
- They don't make noise.
- They don't have mass die-offs due to disease.
- They can't jump and are easily confined.
- For the same length "bug" they have more protein and less chitin.
- They don't chew on gecko toes.

Not sure it’d be worth it for personal use. You might just end up with more feeders than you need. And a majority of them wouldn’t be the right size for which ever pet yoh decide to get.
