They do have a better nutrition value than crickets and they’re fine to feed to her. She might love them. My biggest thing with lobsters is they climb glass.

I purchased 100 dubias almost three weeks ago for breeding. I needed something that is not as smelly as crickets or as noisey. So far all looks good and they are getting huge. I got a mixed bunch when they arrived.. pregnant females,males, females, juveniles and some babies. I just feed them for now and look in on them once in a while. I will start to feed them off a little in another two months, allowing time for breeding and growing. I hear they are great feeders and look forward to giving them to all my herps. I also started raising silkworms and the first batch came along well... second one failed but I am on the third batch and hoping for the best.

hey yeh thats what im gunna do, when i bought the beardie they guy threw in 100 of them for an extra fiver so happy days i gut load them with orange peel but it dont take long to rot so im gunna invest in a powdered gut loader, the thing is you have to be careful they dont lay eggs in the tank cuz thats how infestations start, they can also climb up things, let me know how you get on and pm me any probs you find with it mate so i can watch out for it too.
