Has anyone else tried feeding Orange Headed Roaches to their Beardies?
I decided to try them, I got them from NY Worms, and they have been great. All my females love roaches more then anything else and all I had before was Lobster Roaches. The problem was that all of them were staying in the 300-330 gram range , I think because Lobsters only get so big and it was hard to keep a colony growing when your feeding off the adults. The orange headed roach gets 2-3 times as big as the lobster roach which means I've been able to feed off the juvie-sub adults and keep the colony growing. After 2 weeks my girls are all over 350 grams now and dont seem to be stopping. These roaches also cant climb like many others. Does anyone else feed something that produces results like this that maybe not many people have tried? Charlie
