Where do you buy your bugs?

[blessedmommy]

I thought I posted this earlier, but don't see it, so I'll try again. Where do you order your insects from? I raise dubia so have all sizes, but am wondering about other bugs because I read somewhere on here, not to do more than 50% of one kind so I'm assuming variety is good? I can sometimes get crickets locally and can get mealworms. I just have a very young chameleon so need small feeders. What else should I buy for him and where do you buy them online? How much variety do they need?

I get my hornworms from http://www.greatlakeshornworm.com/ only process orders mon-wed so better to order at the beginning of the week if you don't want to wait. Another good place for feeders is http://www.mulberryfarms.com/

Where are you? I'm in uk so I may not be able to help. Variety is great but don't buy too many as your Cham may not like them. I ve tried silkworms. butterworms. Dubais, locusts. Crickets. I get excited when I think I have something new and he then decides he prefers crickets.

I am in the US. Ya, I won't order a lot at once. I have a beardie too, so at least have 2 different reptiles try the new food on, in hopes at least one will like them.

Site sponsors, the classifieds section on the forum, www.mulberryfarms.com, www.smallpetfeeders.com, other members also breed some of their own feeders so maybe if you talk to them they might sell you some
