Id recommend ordering a few cultures from smallpetfeeders as they are kind of small imo, but bean beetles are the easiest.
Ive used confused flour beetles as well but they can be a bit more of a pain in the butt... you need a sifter to get them out and when you sift, you pick up larvae too.. So ime its best to feed them out of a cup.

I know how your feeling... I'm not going to drop any names but... a few individuals better start being a little more appreciative
.I'm wanting to start a feeder group with some people on here were each person breeds one type of insect. We would just pitch in for the initial investment for all of the equipment and eggs/larvae. Then we could maintain a large variety of feeders without having to spend 10 hours a day cleaning and maintaining that many different insects.

bean beetles are fabulous as SMALL prey for young chameleons or smaller species. They are similar in size to fruit flies.

Then they will be perfect for Kermit and the veiled babies when they hatch.

Would this be a bartering ring? If I send you 100 hissers you send me 1000 horn/silk eggs, etc?

Seriously? Adult hissers are $3 a piece!
Ok, you might can find some for $2, but still! Similar threads
