    Got 7 albino pacmans

    I sadly bought on impulse but I have enough time and money for each one going to house in tubs, I think 6quart for now or just bump to 16 quart, its just diet I need to wrap my head around that and see what I need to out source for food. Any suggestions?

    One of the best feeders that is easy to breed and not smelly like crickets are Dubias and those guys love them.

    How pricey are they? Start a colony 25 bucks or need more?

    I have no idea, I was fortunate enough that when I was breeding them a friend just gave me a starter colony as he had so many of them.

    But I would think $25 should get you about 2 dozen adults, which in no time will start reproducing.

    Depending on how well your Pacs are eating you might plan on getting 2 or 3 adult males (should be $1 or less each) and 10 to 20 females (have seen up to $2.50 each) and then get a bunch of mixed to feed off.

    Pacman frogs are so cool! Congrats on the additions.
    For a good dubia colony you need about 100F and 30M, But you can start getting them in smaller groups that are like $20-$30(which will cost less than getting all at once).

    Here is a kind of run over post on breeding dubia. http://dragonspythonscatsohmy.blogsp...a-roaches.html

    Sorry, I don't mean to derail.... but every time I scroll down the page and see this thread title, there's this little voice in my head that says, "you mean seven albino pacmen! No, wait....."
