Seems like we could debate this issue all day. One of the websites I used to visit which had several types of different bug qualities (protien, calcium, fat, etc..) is gone. Does anybody else have data on this. The order went something like roaches, crickets, mealworms, waxworms, and maybe one or two others. I don't disagree that mealies can be good feeders and your pets will eat them, but it would be interesting to see if you fed two babies, one on roaches only, and one of mealies only, which would do better. I will put my money on the roaches. There are uses for all these feeders. For example even though waxworms are at the bottom of the list, they are loaded with fat and great for putting weight back on a females which just laid. In my spare time (hahaha) I will try and find some data.
