[QUOTE="Combat Advantage, post: 176891, member: 33095"] Yes, thats true. when you have a good source and have them available they have a higher protein analysis. My only local source sells them for around a buck a piece. Most that are boxed for sale are dead. Then I'm allergic. I used to correct the problem of all feeders by raising my own. Rodents, giant hissing ****roaches... There's too many big priorities right now, so its unfortunately not an option. That's why June bugs look so appealing. The ones that I see aren't sprayed and eat some of the same food from my yard that I do. Wild greens, garden. I never offer anything that is typically considered a high parasite bug. I think wild or domestic will have internal parasites though. I like your recommendation of some quarantine time. Examine the food for mites, and vigour,... [/QUOTE]
