Excuse the double post but..

Is anyone currently raising insects for their geckos? I have mealworms on a continuous cycle, but they seem to take a tad bit long to reproduce. Has anyone tried Lobster Roaches? Crickets smell a tad bit awful, so i'm trying to steer clear of them.

I breed supers, they take a little longer than mealies, but the beatles live up to three months and produce a lot of babies. I've just expanded my colony, when I finished my new herp room so I'll never run out of them again. I hear roaches are pretty easy, but hubby won't let me get any, and I'm still kind of grossed out by them anyways.
