I was wondering how many of you out there have used these or are currently using them as feeders?

they are huge more expensive, rarer and slow breeders, they also cant climb

bout the same as discoids but bigger

unless you have a few beardies or alot of T's they are probly just fine

they are just not that common yet

Thanks, they are indeed abit expensive, but imo definately worth it. They look awesome and big. I am only breeding them for my really big T's so there speed of breeding is not a problem.
I would just like some good care info on them as I hear they would do better if kept different to dubia's and lobsters.
