Still have some more questions hope you dont mind. Is there anyway that I could make a cheap dry gutload substrate. That way all of the worms will be constantly gutloaded instead of having to take out a few specifically for gutloading. I was thinking of crushing up dry dog food and tropical fish flakes. We have potatos just about every night so I will always have peelings to use and I can get apples for free from the school my mom teaches at for moisture. My other question is can I feed the leopard gecko the beetles produced after they breed and how can you tell if they have layed their eggs or not. Im affraid I will put the beetles in their own container before they lay their eggs and I assume that wouldnt be good. Cause I figure eventually I will have several beetles ready to lay eggs so it would be hard to figure out which beetles to take out and which ones to leave for egg laying.

Recap of the questions:

1. Ingredients for a cheap gutloading substrate.

2. Feeder Beetles.

3. When to put beetles in own container
