Hello all, I recently acquired a large colony of dubia roaches for our masses of fat tails, leos, cresteds, and gargoyles. So far the roach colony is still in the starting stages and isn't a problem yet. I did however encounter a dilemma. The adult roaches are too large for 95+% of my geckos to eat. Now I am not over run with roaches yet but we all know how fast these guys reproduce so I decided to start looking into a "garbage disposal" that could take care of some of my extra adult dubias I would no longer need. This is where you guys come in.
I have considered beardies and blue tongues of course but was curious as to some of my other options. I am not looking to get something as large as a tegu or monitor however, and would like to keep it at about the size range of a large blue tongue or beardie but not necessarily one of those animals. So if anyone here has some suggestions for other lizards that would be large enough to easily handle some adult dubia roaches let me know! Thanks all.
