I don't know what chicken feed is medicated or not so I might be not intentionally feeding the roaches medicated chicken feed. It doesn't say on the package wether it is

i dont really worry about feeding my feeders since i dont plan to keep them long term other than give them bits of carrotsfor moisture i just try to feed em offf fast as i can and buy them as needed

I breed them

i dunno then you might want to ask what others use to feed their colonies or maybe call the maker of the chicken feed and ask them if its medicated

I would never give my Ts food with chemicals in it.

I wouldn't risk it. You can always give feeder insects pieces of dog food, chopped carrots/veggies, or even commercial diets to eat instead.

Well your T's won't get avian flu.
I believe medicated chicken feed has antibiotics in it. Personally I wouldn't feed it to my feeders. For superworms plain old dollar store oatmeal is fine and way cheaper than medicated chicken feed I'm sure.

If you are in doubt or question, it’s always better not to do it.

I would not feed that to your feeders

Then why the angry face for my identical comment?

People use lettuce, oranges, cucumbers, carrots, dry cricket food, and sometimes cat food/dog food for their roaches. I've found oranges and carrots work best for me.
