I buy my supplemental feeders like soldier fly larvae from them. Great service, ships from TX usually in a couple days. Only issues have been when USPS left it on the dock for pickup after an "Attempted delivery" where I watched them drive by because I was waiting lol Even then the larvae just went into pupation. Alex ate those and some of the flies that grew just the same. Refunded me the one pack of 500 that turned and threw in some silkworms on my next order. All I did was let them know what happened and still left 5 stars because it wasn't their fault lol
A lot of calcium in BSFL and roaches might provide some entertainment for predators.
Just a thought. I'm ordering some for Alex since she's in egg mode.
Tip for soldier flies, buy small at 1,000 and put them in a bucket / large container and put food scraps in. They will eat anything. Meat, dairy, veggie, grains doesn't matter. They grow very fast. Scoop them out of the mess and toss em in some water to wash the nastiness off and use them. Keep it somewhat warm but not out of smell distance lol
You can add a stick for them to crawl up and out or scrape the sides / lid. They crawl up things to pupate into flies when ready thus leaving only large ones.
