I know this isn't what you wanted to hear, but I pupate more Silk worm moths than I know what to do with... Without much effort too. Compared to Horn worm moths, the Silk worm moths are much easier and quicker to produce... In my personal experience.

Well, let's see here... I limit the number of Horn worms I buy to a single pod at a time. After feeding off as many worms as my Cham will eat and pupating the rest to moths, there aren't any extras. I don't buy Silk worms anymore, but I still have more than I know what to do with... Way more...

I feed a single Chameleon with these feeders... Bug Farm: Bug Farm by NERVOUS posted Jan 28, 2016 at 7:56 PM B. dubia: Dubias by NERVOUS posted Jan 28, 2016 at 7:56 PM N. cinerea: Lobsters by NERVOUS posted Jan 28, 2016 at 7:56 PM P. nivea: Green Banana Roaches by NERVOUS posted Feb 3...

Not sure where to get these from, but they certainly look like they would be 'interesting' to a Cham. o_O Samia cynthia by NERVOUS posted May 7, 2016 at 10:58 AM @FraMa - It sounds like you have used these as feeders before. Care to share where we can some?

For those of you that breed GBRs, how do you harvest them when it's feeding time? My colony is in a bin with cork rounds / flats on top of coconut fiber substrate. As soon as I lift the cork rounds / flats the roaches scatter and disappear into the substrate. Any all feedback is...

Hmm, looks like I've exceeded my goal for this little project by a bit. Hopefully, they don't all hatch at the same time so I can feed them to my Cham (before they die off). o_O Lots of Horn worm moths on the way! by NERVOUS posted May 6, 2016 at 12:49 PM

Ahh, thanks! He's an Ambilobe from Kammerflage Kreations.

The screen tops are very good at keeping the bug in their respective bins. Plus, each bin has a strip of petroleum based jelly along the top edge; which deters the bugs from climbing out of their bins. When it's time to harvest feeders, I usually collect them while adding food to the bins...

That's certainly one way to force the issue, but it might be easier to increase the variety (i.e. roaches of different sizes, different species, etc) or changing your feeding schedule (i.e. offering food 5-days per week instead of everyday). Just curious, but have you tried offering an adult...

Along the same lines as what @KapitalJ said, healthier feeders means healthier pet(s). That said, I do my best to provide feeders with a comfortable living environment along with all the nutritional food they can consume. Here's how I keep my colonies of B. dubia, N. cinerea, and P. nivea...

How often are you feeding him?

@ispeedonthe405 - Great username! :ROFLMAO:

Just realized you're on the East coast and I'm on the West coast. So, we might be checking different sites (because I believe Coastal Silkworms operates two different companies - East coast and West coast).

I get mine from Coastal Silkworms. They have them in stock now... I just checked their website.

He's ~7 months old.

Yrah, it's way more than 100... Close to 200 in fact! (y)
