You could try these places for livefood: http://www.butterworms.co.uk/index.html I've ordered silkworms from here. I believe they also stock Calcigrubs (aka Phoenix Worms) too. For roaches you could try: http://www.roachshop.co.uk/ for Roaches (Dubia) and Phoenix Worms.

Thats what i fought but seem as its been awhile now i dont know what to try seem as his old home was way too small for him n it was also completly closed in as it was wood and glass

 

[jannb]

Do you have a big tree you can just let him hang out in for awhile and see if he might eat there?

 

[Miss becky]

nope sadly not
