Ok I'm going to ask here because no one is answering my question on the dart frog page.

Does anyone know what's the largest sized prey that dart frogs can eat. 1/16", 1/8", 1/4" ? And how big are baby orange head roaches.

What other roach species are non-climbing and produce small babies.

Thanks,
Israel

I had some small frogs (althogh they were not darts or mantellas) that only the larger of them were barely able to eat about a day old baby dubia roaches (orange spotted). I think (but am not 100% sure) that orange heads are bigger roaches than dubia. I could imagine maybe...maybe a larger dart frog cat eat a very young (just born to a few days old) roaches... The smallest baby roaches has to be the lobster, but they can climb glass. Not sure what is the smallest non-climbing roach. I keep discoid and dubia. Trying to get deathheads. Orange head is too large for me.

If I could find orange spotted cheap I'd get those. 1 1/2" adult size is prefect for me. The 2 1/2" adult of orange heads is large for anything I keep.

But I'd love to get something that has tiny babies that could be fed to dart or mantellas. I've always been interest in darts, I just hate the hassles of cricket breeding. I hate the chirping and the stink. I don't care what anyone says other wise crickets always STINK. And i'm not to keen on have a mess full of fruit flies in my house

I going to be getting 100 Orange Head near the end of march.
Can't beat Dan Haas's price on this roach. Atleast I can't find anyplace cheaper.
