[QUOTE="Rick Stallard, post: 35121, member: 3166"] I try to feed crickets one feeding and Dubias the next. This winter it may be Dubias most of the time. It's a 50 mile round trip to get crickets, (crickets are $1.25 a doz.) . I started a Dubia colony a couple of months ago ( 100 for $25) for the reason of not being able to get crickets to feed everyone. There are more than T's to feed. My colony is now maybe 1000. Thats great but some of my sub and adult Ts don't much like them. Guess the kids will eat anything but the adults are picky. For some reason I have never fed superworms to the Ts. My lizards love them, so I'll try them on the Ts. Something that works good on slings is waxworms. Small enough and are easy to find. Has anyone fed silk worms?? When I can get them I do. The lizards eat them like a kid with cotton candy. They are full of all the good stuff crickets and roaches don't have. Hard to find except at major expos and online. A T might go crazy over such a soft tasty meal. [/QUOTE]
