Looking for a good website to buy a variety of feeder bugs?

[photogurl247]

Does anyone buy online? If you know a good website and place to order from could you please send me the link? Thank you!
I have a Veiled and she is getting bored with the crickets and super worms

There are a few sponsors here that offer a variety, I would go with silkworms and possibly some roaches for your veiled, though veileds can be picky with their bugs so she might not take the roaches. So I've heard at least.

Coastal Silkworms sells silkworms, and I think their having a sale right now.

And then I usually buy my dubias from some place cheaper, which are usually the people on the forum. It's not hard to find ads for them in classified foods section. I would only buy a few nymphs to start out with to see if your little one likes them. There is also giant banana roaches, they climb plastic however and need to be kept in a locking bin, they are usually however a favorite of most chams. A forum member is selling them for quite cheap right now.

Mulberry farms, Ghann's crickets, New York worms, and others in the sponsers links sell a variety of bugs. I have a dubia colony but my guy is not crazy about dubias. Dubias are not a very active bug, they will all huddle together in a corner and not move. If they aren't moving the cham will generally not be interested. Turkistan roaches are smaller, faster and just as easy to breed as Dubias. I have some of them coming from NY worms next week. Even doing a google search for feeder bugs will get you a ton of results. One draw back of ordering online is shipping. In order to get you live bugs the stores usually ship priority and it can be almost as much as the cost of the bugs. You may find, if you cham likes all the different bugs, that you grow your own. Pigglett79 has a blog for silkworms and hornworms.

I use a couple different sites, the sponsors are always a good start. I use
lindasgonebuggie.com and rainbow mealworms between the two places I get everything I need. I only have one chameleon so lindas is good because she sells small quantities of the bugs. She has silkworms in stock now and they are a great feeder.

Everything they sell except the mealworms are a good choice for feeders. Do some google or bing searches and find what works for you. I have started to breed a lot of my own feeders and learned how to do that with the blogs on this forum and you tube videos. I have a colony of dubia roaches, superworms and six silkworms I am going to try to get to cocoon.

Armstrong crickets has always been the cheapest site ive ever found. 20$ flat for 500 crickets shipped to your door at any size, plus they have supers and i believe others.

I notice my Cham likes the super worms over the crickets for some reason..she is small so I wouldn't need giant roaches yet LOL I must admit that made me laugh to think of having Giant roaches. This also may sound like a silly question but are these kind of roaches the same as cockroaches? So we wouldn't want them getting loose?

They aren't the german cockroaches you find terrorizing households but yes they are a type of cockroach. Dubias are one of the few of the "exotic" feeder roaches that can live outside of their enclosures. But they can't get loose usually as they can't climb. The giant green banana roaches are really only considered giant because their cousin the green banana roach is only .5-1.5 inches long, the longest giant one is like 2 inches at most. They can fly but not as well as their smaller cousin AND CANNOT live outside the enclosure for more than a day or two.

Thank you for clarifying

Anyone know of a place in Canada that can ship a variety of feeders.. really anything other then crickets, mealworms, silkworms, horn worms, superworms, wax worms. I'd really like some moths, flies, roaches etc.
