They’re both very easy to keep and provide good nutrition. But there are a couple differences which may lead you to pick one or the other. The dubia roach, Blaptica dubia, is a small, flightless cockroach native to South America. The superworm, Zophobas atratus, is the larva of a darkling beetle native to the tropics of central and South America. Nutritionally, both species have a good protein content, low fiber, and lots of moisture. For all the details, check out our full comparison.

They’re very easy to get and can be kept easily, which makes them a great backup feeder, or a good choice as one part of your pet’s diet. They have good nutrition and don’t stink like crickets do, which is a big bonus. They work well in combination with lean protein feeders like crickets and dubia roaches. So the answer is yes; mealworms are a good feeder. But you should know a few things before you start including them in your pet’s diet. Check out our full article for all the details.

They are prone to a lot of the same issues as reptiles, including viruses and parasites.The first thing you should be aware of is which problems affect which species. The main species of feeder crickets are Acheta domesticus (the brown house cricket) and Gryllodes sigillatus (the banded cricket). Most problems that crickets have are due to habitat conditions, viruses, or parasites. Check out our full article for more details on diagnosing problems with crickets.

Hornworms are less common as feeders, but they’re a hearty, nutritious choice, with a higher protein to fat ratio than dubia roaches. If you’re looking for a long-term feeder for your reptile, you'll need some plastic gutter guard screen, like you find at the hardware store, some deli cups, two storage bins, and a lepidtarium. For all the details, read our full article on Ovipost.

People like leopard geckos because they take up very little space, they like being handled, and can live for over 15 years. They’re also pretty low maintenance. But setting up a habitat for a leopard gecko can still be tricky. You'll need the right vivarium, a delicate mix of heat and light, hides and furniture, and a steady supply of feeder insects.

But that doesn’t mean they’re easier (or cheaper) to own. The total cost can run upwards of $600 just to get set up. You'll need a vivarium full of substrate, hides and food bowls, a heat lamp, a steady supply of feeder insects, and of course, a bearded dragon.

You can make one with a plastic storage tub, some egg flats, and a starter colony of roaches. But maximizing your colony’s population is a little trickier.
