    I rotate between wax worms, mealworms, nightcrawlers (they usually refuse) and crickets. I won't give mine roaches, don't need any impactions. But, I would offer mine something else except our stores are limited. No one sells anything but worms and crickets. And I check the containers first because most contain dead worms. Wish flies were easier to house....

    Mealworms are more of an impaction risk than roaches.

    I'm not fond of them either. I'm going to check bait stores or anywhere I can get smaller earthworms.

    Would Red Worms be an okay Substitute for Night Crawlers?
    How do I keep my Pin-Head Crickets alive longer?

    I heard red worms are but stores here don't sell any. Crickets need a light like the pet shop keeps them with. There are ways to keep them longer that I read about on the internet. I have a screened container, mine get out occasionally and even after housing them with damp cotton balls and right food, they don't last long here either. I make weekly trips to the store since its close by.
