I never thought about oranges, what is going to give them the best nutrition for what will be eating the would you gut load before feeding them. If so how or what? Thank you for your very informative videos. I know there are a lot more roaches in each tub, do the bottom dwellers come up? Do you ever want to move and see who’s not coming up to eat? Probably those male. Lol I see lots more videos in your future 🤞🏻
Is it better if there’s less egg crates? I have around 300* females but on a 100+L bin and i feel like they’re breeding slow. There are like 50 egg crates in there and i think that’s one of the problem. Is it?
I tried oranges for my Dubia colony and all it did was mold up in some interesting ways after two days. So, lesson learned: No more oranges for my colony. Lol Researching diy chow for them now. Informative video though.
Enjoyed the video. I've gone back and forth with oranges and at this point, don't feel oranges are a huge benefit to the roaches (compared of course to feeding other essential foods). But, love your videos!
I e been told by a few “breeders” who said that the oranges are good for “breeding” I don’t know if it’s true but mine seem to love oranges but not sure about breeding
I saw someone sifting with those giant tubs, they drilled holes in it like you did your buckets. Since you're so big, I feel like you should do that! Also, what is your drilling sizes for each bucket ?
@@foodchainfeeders262 yeah but what borehole sizes did you use, I've watched several of your videos now but I haven't found any actual numbers so I'm guessing around 3/8 of an inch and then for like a smaller ones about a quarter inch or so I don't know you need to State some numbers I know it might be a proprietary secret or something in your eyes but it would be cool to know what you do I like your content by the way and I've subscribed recently, also I haven't like browse through your individual videos I've just been clicking what's below the current video but like how do you tell a mail from a female
Okay so I got my first starter colony a few days ago. Obviously, I don’t have that many. Should I still add that many egg cartons? I’m worried then they won’t be meeting up if there are too many crevices. Also, I put oranges in their colony today and no one has touched them. Is there something I should be worried about? Thanks!
I recently started mine and short answer is No. You want the fables and males to be able to locate each other. I just took out like 4 flats last night.
Start with a couple flats and add more slowly over time as the ones you have in there start to get crowded. Also to get my dubia interested in oranges, I smash them up in a little food bowl to release some juice. Just make sure the bowl has a rough texture so they can climb in.
I have a question!! I used them to feed my hedgehog, but for my hedgehog oranges are really bad. Would it be bad to feed oranges to e roaches? Or the roaches breaks it and makes it good?
So you know you feed bearded dragons greens too right and citrus helps the roaches breed maybe you should try a different feeder cause fuck the reptile community, tarantulas die in your care so we use roaches and you shouldn't.
This is old I probably will not get a answer. But does anyone ever give them a thin layer of actual substrate? I do know that they love to dig in the dirt. I have copied everything on CZcams to a T and I have zero babies.
From what I noticed it's mainly about temperature 75f 85f so you could just have an empty tub with toilet paper tubing a cartons and that's about it and they'll breed and I sometimes uses spray bottle to just missed in there just have humidity but not too often cuz sometimes the food that's in the container would mold so once every week I do
@@foodchainfeeders262 ok you seem to be the only one I have found to ask this question to. I was told I was wrong but the math is right. To produce 13,000 babies you would need 390 roaches broken down that's 312 females and 78 males! Well I was told this is not possible and I was wrong with how I got the number!
You should hook us up with a Timelapse of them eating.
i like how the roaches go up into the light just to get oranges
Love your content bro, keep up the great work. Just got a new sub.
Plsss keep making videos!!!!!!!
Anyone who dosent know his CZcams channel got locked out he created a new one it goes by the name Dubia Bros
nice dubia colony can you show us videos on how you sort your dubias.
How you been it's been awhile
you should try mangos it's even more nutty.
Y did u stop posting
@Food Chain Feeders do you feed them organic oranges or regular oranges?
Bro where's this guy go he just disappeared after all these videos three years ago
Have you ever tried WATERMELON 🍉?? Instead of the oranges I thought citrus acid possibly causing gout in reptiles.

More videos on the mice
Do you still do this? You stopped posting. Would love to know more.

yes to many could be a problem
Give us more videos please
I think feeding them food waste would be far more sustainable rather than feeding them ready to eat grocery store quality food

What is the purpose of raising Dubia roaches?
Are u Filipino?? Btw, nice dubia colony content.
Are you still selling Dubia roaches?

If I buy some roaches could you ship them to Oregon? I have always been fascinated with roaches since I was a kid when I lived in Nevada.
How many did you start with? How long did it take to be like that?
well if u go back to one of his first vids it literally says THE START of my Dubia colony and it was almost 2 yrs ago
Are you planning to grow blatta lateralis? Can you tell us how they are bred?
I like to use cardboard between my egg flats
Do you get a lot of fruit flies from leaving fruit in there? Then from all the juice that's left behind?
Are you still up and running? Just discovered your channel and tried to find you on insta but your page is gone :(

Every day I found one or two dead roach at my dubia colony is it normal?

how often do you feed?
when you sell ,do you sell numbers or by weight
What do you do when your roaches inbreed for too long????
Please help I only have 8 dubias I am feeding them like crazy but I am not sure if they are eating.
Hey bro...
Can we give Fruit,vege every night to dubia?
Orange 1 time perweek right?
how much dubia per piece.
Do you sale starter colonies
How much for the the bigg one
How many breeder females to you currently have?
alot. i lost count
@@foodchainfeeders262 I have 10,000. 800 per bin. 12 breeder bins. 200 males in each as well.
@@frankbaritell1930 wow 400,000 babies per month that's amazing
Make video again... I want to see your dubia
Citrus is bad for bearded dragons. Feeding citrus fed roaches to bearded dragons a long time could be dangerous to them.
So you know you feed bearded dragons greens too right and citrus helps the roaches breed maybe you should try a different feeder cause fuck the reptile community, tarantulas die in your care so we use roaches and you shouldn't.

Hey bro do You shipped to México i'll pay
wtf I thought they hate citrus
How many oranges do you go through a week lol?
First
Can’t the oranges be bad because when you feed the Dubias to the reptiles it can be toxic?
You cycle them out before feeding. Those are for breeding.
How do I order dubia roaches from you?
Hello how do I order from you?
Question do you count your male to female ratio?
yes i like 4-1

Can I buy a adult male and females to start a tub?
yes
Do you consult, if so DM me with your rate. I need some assistance.
Yes you want to avoid giving your dubia's diabetes with orange juice LoL
