I have ventured into the world of Dubia Roaches : )
I have done lots and lots of research on these little feeders and my Bearded Dragon loves to chase and eat them up!
I started out with 2 male adults and 10 female adults and 100 nymphs of different sizes to use as feeders while my big guys make babies. They are all together in a 20 gal aquarium with egg crates and such. My children 3 and 6 years old love to watch their "Rollie polies" so I don't want to put them in a Rubbermaid bin. I just covered 3 sides with black construction paper and tape we had lying around our craft area.
My question is I want to make the aquarium look better. I want to add some clay pots and maybe fish aquarium decor to hide the egg crates a bit. I worry the roaches will eat the clay and stuff the Decor is made from and then transfer that to my dragon? Beings these are feeder insects my dragons health must come first!
Thank you for any and all suggestions in advanced!
