i hvae breed dubia and sold them aswell. very easy to maintain but you will need to feed a baby crickets for a while. I suggest buying them online like previously mentioned on the thread. and breeding crickets is a MESS and the smell horrible just to be realistic, but then i could never breed rats or mice unless i had a huge house with a garage LOL. but ya pet store crix make a killing for the store same with there mice my store is lik 2.50 a mouse. anyways BD's are well worth it but for the first six months u need to stick with worms or crix people will say no worms but its easily done lol. good luck also highly recomend using a MVB bulb.
