Breeding Dubia Roaches

[Ashley]

I don't know Brad, I don't think I will have a problem feeding them off. I just don't like bugs. I had my first encounter with a superworm and to tell you the truth I had to do the tong method...ick.

I think I will take on that challenge though. Dubia it is

That's why it will be a surprise

Good luck with your new roach project!

...I received a good amount of dubia from someone on the forums... How long should I wait until I can start heavily feeding off the colony?...

Howdy Kevin,

Try feeding-off roaches over several days right away to make sure that your chameleons actually have a strong interest in them before you dump a lot of time and effort into them. Some chameleons loose interest in roaches after eating just a few of them while others love them forever . If you run low, I almost always have more .
