A warning about breeding dubia roaches

If you're looking to start a dubia roach colony and you want it to be this size, go watch my video on how I set them up

I breed a few different species of roaches and definitely saves a lot of money and makes me money as well. I have over 10 monitors along with geckos, frogs, arachnids and few other critters. I go through 2-4pounds of vegetables every other day to feed the roaches. Best investment I’ve made they feed all my critters and enough to supply a few friends and some local pet shops. I also breed superworms, mealworms and waxworms it’s the only way I can afford such a large variety of species. Well wish you all the best and hope you have a great day bud 🙋‍♂️✌️

Can't even tell anymore if it'll be a feast for Lizards or the Roaches

Simple solution. Buy a small electric grinder and a small sausage stuffer and make bug sausages using collagen casing. Perfectly safe to feed to your reptiles. Benefits are as follows:
-Ground insects are easier to digest.
-Ground insects are extremely compact so you can fit dozens of Dubias into a single casing.
-You can freeze them for up to several months.
-You only have to feed a single sausage to a larger reptile VS. many Dubia - Ease of feeding.
-You can mix in fresh fruits and veggies for omnivorous reptiles that don't like to eat their greens.

WOW an albino one!!! Imagine a whole albino colony?? Wild

Wow, I love your videos! I’m an aspiring herpetologist but I have a massive interest in isopods and have 21 species now… but my excuse is that the food is free haha! I want to eventually get a pair of ackie monitors and a pair of green tree monitors a few years down the line and use some of my isopods in a bioactive exhibit. Isopods breed MUCH slower and more reasonably than many roaches.

Cool, what would be the ideal temp? perfectly suited to feed fish in an eco way!

[littlehollow]

We usually make a blend of pellets, kale, and carrots. It seems to work well

I don't think I could let them crawl all over my hands like that

[RogerVicki]

Ive just started mine for tarantulas and scorpions plus gecko and couple rats

[lungwort_]

so would a smaller bin maybe a thrid of the size be better? I only own a frog a gecko and a couple of tarantulas and I'm already breeding mealworms, crickets and fruit flies for them. I was told dubias were easier than crickets so I plan to switch to them fully eventually but if keeping them in some smaller tupperware would dwindle the numbers I'd prefer that option

Do you just dump the roaches out for the chickens to hunt and munch on or do you kill them first? Like...roach mulch

[newdawn]

I'm stuck with more than i need and i totally keep then in cooler temps in hopes to calm down the breeding but i don't think that the temp makes a difference to them at all their non stop. Idk whay to do

[wipeout]

non-roach breeder here, my god, i have no idea how you sift your hands through roaches like that with not a single care in the world 😂

[papabad]

you can separate males if you want it them not that many and left only a few just to still keep them breeding.

[FelixSpells]

Dude, I'd kill to have a colony that size! If you ever sell any of 'em, hit me up! Im also in PA

[nikkilovetheyardsale-again]

Ykur not even lying. I have so many for 1 dragon its getting out of hand. At this point im about to undercut every single seller anywhere just to have time for anything else.

Can you send a donation of females and males 🙏

[youtubeeee]

One escapes and your house is doomed, too risky.

[Dina_virgin]

Is that what you feed on chicken that i eat?! WTF!!!

[northman]

Do we really need to own any animal besides dogs and cats, etc. Nothing you have to feed roaches, think of the consequences.
