Feeders in Florida

[Rottluver]

I am now trying to locate a source of feeders.
I already breed fruit flies and mealworms, crickets will not be a problem but I believe Dubia are forbidden in florida. Is this just shipping accross state lines? What about Hornworms and silkworms???
Anybody here in florida that has Dubia?

I buy silks and horns from www.coastalsilkworms.com

Dubia are illegal, but discoids, green banana roaches, pallid roaches, blatta orientalis, and p. Surinamensis roaches are legal because they are either native or they have already established themselves there.

Keep an eye on the classifieds here. I see them listed there sometimes and Pssh that posted above has them sometimes. Check out her link to the bug store. http://www.spiffybugs.com/

Thanks Jan. Unfortunately my colony took a nose dive and now I not longer have them. Roachcrossing.com and bugsincyberspace.com have them. I think doubleds.org has them some times too.

You might be able to even find them wild in FL.

They are in and around my chicken coop by the 100's.
I just need to catch them
any suggestions? I figure any feeders that get too large I can feed to the chickens.

What species are they? Make sure you breed them and only feed off the offspring if it's possible. PM me for details on a easy to make and free trap.
