I raise n breed crickets, so i love watching these vids. I learn new ideas for my own.

Quick recommendation for your mealworms; I have a huge mealworm farm that's been running for over 2 years; the best food source that I've been feeding them is meat. Although I also provide veggies and fruit, the little bits of ham I throw in helps to fatten them up and increase their protien value.

I tried dubias recently, all seemed well. Then, after feeding, I would itch like crazy. Found out that their droppings are incredibly allergenic. Not everyone has the same reaction, but still, I recommend using gloves. If you feed many animals, you might even want to use a paint mask to avoid breathing in any roach debris dust. Sounds crazy. For some reason, as much as I detest crickets, I do not itch with them. I advise you to research the topic yourself and decide what you want to do. If just feeding dubias occasionally, probably not an issue.

With the ammount of animals I have I need to buy crickets in thousands, every single time i tried to "unbox" them inside I would loose atleast 10 and complain about it to my friends for the next week. Now they are very annoyed every time I speak about the crickets, so.. I put a single cricket in each of there houses as a joke (they were in small screen boxes I made so they wouldn't go everywhere) ((I wouldn't want to loose my friends)) Now, if they annoy me I put a cricket in there house, and it chirps all night. Now they feel my pain 😅 If you got this far, thanks for reading. Also they are all in the hobby yet only with cresties, and snakes so they dont have crickets. (So they are chill with the cricket thing) (it's now a inside joke between us all and everyone thinks we are weird) Thanks for reading😅 Bye

Hi I’m getting a leopard gecko tomorrow and without your channel I wouldn’t have any good knowledge about them

Whenever I get crickets I order 1000 at a time (I’m feeding lots of lizards and frogs) and they are shipped loose in the box. The first time that I had them shipped I had no clue they were loose in the box and opened them on my kitchen counter. I had about 200 Crickets jumping around my house after I opened it. I still always get the few escapees every time I open it.

Leopard Gecko yeah... i thought it was a mealworm at first till i got further into the video😂

I raise n breed my own feeder crickets. But I ordered from Joshs Frogs one time this year and let me tell you. I seen good reviews about them so I ordered wax worms. They came over a week late, box crushed, hot and worms were black, hard and dead. They werent even turning into moths. Just dead. Atleast they did send me a new order faster after I sent numerous pics and emails complaining. The next order died within days. So I wont be dealing with them again. I only tried them because I wanted my dragons to have a diff meal. It sucks that these delivery companies dont care about a sellers product or when the seller doesnt care about the product. Thats why I raise my own crickets. I put up some vids on how I do it. Thank you for sharing this. I love learning new ways.

Many exoskeletons= healthy mealworms that are growing and btw they will eat the substrante. Hence why there isn’t much substrate and lots of sheds.

Do you recommend the bio dudes bug grub? It's designed to go along with vegetables/fruits.

I use quick oats as bedding for my crickets.

From my experience, it’s best to keep mealworms refrigerated to make them last longer. If you want to make crickets dormant you can put them in the fridge also, but there’s no specific temperature for either bug that I know of.

What bedding do u use for the mealworms

Are meal, wax or any other "worm" ok for crested geckos as a small treat? Just for variety. I feed diets in a variety but my gecko is still new but I'm not sure if theres another insect I can use aside from crickets? And I dont want to use dubia roaches, I'm not sure if someones gonna suggest it.
