Anyone use lobster roaches?

Just the right size for him ATM.

no i don't use lobster roachs but i have a very small colony of dubias for my new chamelelon...trying to get him too eat them no luck yet...but never seen a lobster roach before

they look different than most. sort of a granite color, and smaller "wings".

are you cup feeding, hand feeding or free range feeding in a screened cage?
I let Helios hunt them in his enclosure.

um i tryed hand feeding him he looks at it then look at me...soo i think i'll try free ranging them...hopefully that works out with him...can dubias claim a screen cage

i would assume so, my lobsters climb up the side of the glass jar they're in even. i like to place them on the sides of the cage so you don't have to worry about whether they're climb up or not on their own.

Ive never used lobster roaches but i use dubias and my guy loves them. I cup feed with a little peice of screen glued to it so that they can climb up and down so my chameleon can see them, they move around in the cup for a bit then they all just congregate at the bottom and sit there haha so i have to force some onto the screen so he can see them. Im afraid to free range them cause i think they will just hide under something then i will have to go looking for them

i'm going to try both cup feeding and free range one at a time...but thanks for the heads up on that...
