Good options

So it seems dubias are the way to go as a staple. What's the care difference for say ordering in bulk for the month vs breeding them? It seems like breeding and sorting the sizes can be a task. In addition I was thinking about adding some Phoenix worms here and there since I can get them local and I don't want to but a wine cooler for them. Thoughts?

Up to you. If you have a group of insectivorous herps that will eat them then breeding might be worth it. If you only have one mouth to feed ordering may be better. Generally, the more variety of insects you can offer the better. Not all chams will eat all the options either.

It would be for a a juvi Cham is all.

I had this whole big plan on breeding them but our cham doesn't seem to care for the dubias. Hopefully in time.

I'm trying to figure out how much of each feeder I will need of each per month. I was planning on just bulk ordering but now I'm second guessing. Dubai 3 days at how many per feeding? Black soldier fly twice a week how many per feeding? And I was thinking small super worms because they are easy to care for as well. So I'm just wondering how many of each so I can decide if I'll create a Dubai colony and how much to order. Oh I haven't bought the Cham yet but it would be around 3/4 months old.
