I know they are high in calcium and do not require a gutload or to be dusted.

I used them twice but they are expensive, and my geckos did eat them but I'm sticking with mealworms and crickets.

I tried them here and just wasn't impressed. They climbed right out of my tubs which made them more trouble than they were worth. I did grow a bunch out in a slurry I made from mealworm frash. They did get big and fat, but my lizards just wouldn't touch them.

From where? Do your geckos like them? How big are they?

I tried them and my leos won't eat them. Plus they smelled like ammonia.

Yea we tried them, most of our geckos utterly hated the things. The problem is they can climb up walls and ceilings so they escape pretty easily form a dish. Also they are pricey and the place we ordered from, each order had about 1/2 of them dead or dieing.

I can get them from Mullberryfarms.com but i havent tried them yet thats why i asked but i think im going to try them anyways because my leos might like them cuz they are so weird like that. Also the ones im talking about are 3/4 of an inch long.

Mine loved them and I had no problems with escapes. I'm surprised every one has such cruddy times with them. Mine just attacked them and ate them over the mealies in their bowls. The only reason I don't get them anymore is the price and the fact grubco doesn't sell them...
