Message: <blockquote data-quote="kormath" data-source="post: 77977" data-attributes="member: 4199">variety is best i think.  and others here have agreed.  i feed mine mainly the lateralis roaches.  They get the best feeding response from the Ts.  Dubia burrow, so if the Ts aren't on them quick they burrow away.  They play dead a lot too, so they're not attracting the Ts to munch on them.  Lateralis run almost constantly and quickly draw attention to themselves.  I mix in crickets like once every couple months just for the variety, i only buy enough that i can feed them all off at once <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" />  I have an order of Little Kenyan roaches that just arrived, i'll have to see how well they do as feeders.</blockquote>
