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.
