Finally got some beatles they started turning early in the week, I only started with 100 mealworms so hopefully I can get some babies from them.

I was just curious also, does anyone feed their geckos beatles?

I've never tried to intentionally feed my geckos beetles, but recently I had a superworm in one of my gecko's tanks that turned into an alien so I left it in there (in a hide that the gecko never uses) to let it turn into a beetle and possibly to try and raise supers. About the time I expected it to change, it disappeared. I don't think it could have gotten out, so I can only conclude that the gecko ate that huge beetle!

I have, but I rather keep them for breeding. Only a couple of my geckos will eat them though and they are the geckos that show a preference for mealies, so that may be the reason.

Good start on breeding the mealies. I have over 20,000 mealies now and God know how many beetles. They won't stop. I haven't tried to feed the beetles to my leos and probably won't. I will have a hard enough time trying to get rid of all the mealies. Guess this means only one thing.....Get more leos! Yes.

Well I hadn't tried feeding them a beetle I assumed they wouldn't eat it lol.

Well hopefully I can get a lot I'm tired of buying feeders!
