Pillbugs as feeders?

[StickyFrogfeet]

Yeah pillbugs are mostly made out of are hard shell and are related to crabs in some way i believe and are very hard to digest

Hmmm, well then I guess not? My property is very bug friendly, LOL. We don't use pesticides, fungisides, or weed killers, and we only use organic fertilizers in the garden. The bugs stick around because we basically live in the forest and there's lots of bug food. Is there any other wild critter I could use? We've got worms, we've got snails, we've got giant ants. You name it, it lives in my yard!

i wouldnt recommend feeding anything from outside. im not sure how far bugs can travel but just because you dont use pesticides, doesnt mean your neighbor doesnt either. i would suggest buying a culture from a pet store or website or just buying some crickets.
