wojcik49 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 My male dubia are fighting and eating each others wings...I'm going to get a second bin for them soon. Is there anything I can do to keep them from fighting/eating wings? There is always plenty of food and fruit/veggies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Fighting is normal, but wing biting is from lack of protein. Try adding dog or cat kibble but moisten it with water first. I also add small amounts of cooked hamburger meat (plain) and the colony swarms over it. Offer the kibble every couple of days or they will start eating eachother again. As far as other foods to add they love oranges, bananas, apples, romaine lettuce, and white bread (not toasted) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wojcik49 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 What would you suggest for cat food and dog food? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 The best cat and dog kibble I know of is blue buffalo, it has all natural ingredients and no additives and my roaches love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at the ingredients for blue buffalo but it says it has rosemary oil I thought that is a main thing that kills roaches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wojcik49 Posted May 7, 2012 Author Share Posted May 7, 2012 Is the rumor about rosemary oil/extract killing roaches BS? Cause it looks like almost all dog foods have it in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
