They're probably cleaner in your garden than store bought.

My roaches love Repashy Bug Burger, but it ain't cheap. Today, I didn't have enough Bug Burger left to mix up a full batch, so I added some inexpensive poultry feed to it. So about 50% Bug Burger and 50% chick feed. My roaches seem to like this new mixture just as much as pure Repashy.

You just have to rely on the possibility of the flies going down instead of up. A bit contrary to their instincts, but............ Maybe punch some holes in the bottom of the mantis container, and then place the fly container underneath. The flies would have to somehow crawl though that...

I wonder if there's some old skin left over from the last molt.

Lots of herbivores to choose from. Roaches, millipedes, isopods.

I once hung out on a message board that dealt with a hit TV show. Compared to what I was accustomed to, the amount of traffic was astounding.

I made the above statement on 02/26/23. Since then, I've been working on my third cricket generation. The first chirp occurred about an hour ago. That means that at 90F, it takes Acheta domesticus exactly two months to go through it's complete lifecycle. The second generation remained in...

The second generation has learned to accept my idiosyncrasies.

My experience with Shelfordella lateralis roaches is similar to pet store crickets. They do better in the second generation.

Are you sure it wasn’t just grooming?

I wonder when Marjorie Taylor Greene took her first biology class. She disapproves of fake meat that was grown in a "peach tree dish."

If they do, it's an attempt to escape, find food, find a mate, etc.

I'm no gut loading authority, but I'd be inclined give a feeder what's best for the feeder. That, in turn, should be best for the pet. I'm giving my Shelfordella lateralis roaches Repashy Bug Burger. They seem to like it, but I have some reservations about it's calcium content. Bug Burger is...

No, but apparently the change requires energy which expends some of that composition. At least until it's renewed.
