We feed mostly supers, but we also throw mealies, waxies, silks and crickets in on occasion. I really love supers though, they're easy to keep and don't stink like crickets.
Well I said super worms, because right now that it their staple. I also offer crickets. I can't really say they are my favorite though, I don't really think mealies, supers or crickets are very nutritious, but they are what my local store carries, and the super worms last forever. Soon I plan to order some pheonix worms, and then maybe try my hand at hatching and raising some silk worms when the weather gets a bit warmer. The silk worm food is pretty expensive though and I worry I'm going to kill the baby worms by mistake. I wish mulberry grew this far north.
You guys are weird, I would have to say steak and lobster. OH!! You meant for the gecko's. Ok then its meal worms. I always hated dealing with crickets and my girls never really took to supers.
I have supers, mealies and dubias. My Leo loves the dubias and mealies. From my stand point I love the dubias. Easy to care for. Easy to handle. No stink. The colony is starting to take off so the cost is low. Also they work well in a feeding dish since they can't climb.
Supers, mealies and crickets. Mine are pretty lazy though, unless a cricket happens to jump in front of their mouth they really aren't interested, unless its fitz then he LOVES htem, but has now started tryin meal worms.
I would have to say dubia roaches, once you get over the hump of producing them its nearly free food. the feed easily in a dish as RoninSTI mentioned they cant climb well at all. Now im feeding 4.14.30 with out a sign of population depletion in my dubia colonie of 1200+ females and 10s of thousands of juvies. I also used to breed crickets and mealies but just do it to keep them eating different stuff. I would say the roaches could easily stand alone. I have some geckos hatched late Nov that are up to 30grams on just roaches.
