    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Sorry if this is a repeat-I would like to know from those of you that have large collections,which prey item do you use and why ie cost wise,easier to feed ect.The reason I'm asking is that I want to switch my collection from crickets(expensive,hard to breed)to mealworms and superworms,and how would this affect growth.Thanks in advance
 
I have a lot of experience with switching, I anm the king. Right now I'm doing the cricket thing, but I seem to switch from them to mealworms and back at least once a year. Mealworms are cheaper, but your leos will eat more of them. Crickets are a little harder to keep alive for a few weeks, but when they are breeding they produce a lot of offspring quickly.

The best advise I can give is to switch back and forth a few times until you figure out which is best for you and your Leos. Since I live in an apartment and space is more important than money, I just order crickets biweekly. However, during the breeding season I order mealworms to start the babies on until they are 15 or so grams.
