Good Way to Feed Fruit Flies to Slings!

[MES]

Update!
Based on all your suggestions, I ended up trying to feed a piece of mealworm, and it worked great!
My sling finished his entire (huge) meal, so I will definitely be feeding mealworm pieces in the future!
Thanks again for all your feedback!

Get a Dubia colony going. I always have various sized roaches from adult to 1st instar to feed my Ts. Just keep them fed, watered and mold free and they will constantly keep breeding. I started my colony with 3 adult males and 5 adult female Dubia roaches along with 30 nymphs of various sizes tossed in. Now I have at least 300+ living comfortably in a tote with a hollow log and some branches. I tried egg crates, but they get too moist too quickly, and Dubias need humidity to breed and molt properly. Also if you do start a Dubia colony avoid proteins, they are frugivores and too much protein causes them to get gout. Gout can wipe a Dubia colony out very quickly.
