I don't raise them as a food source but if I could that would be awesome, so I don't feed them anything, I just found two at night when hunting for moths and both went down easy enough they were gone in seconds. I just wondered if they were high in any nutrients. I'm feeding them to my Green and Golden Bell frogs and they are all juvenile so they need all the nutrients they can get. I don't dust their food as frogs have done fine in the wild for millions of years without someone following them around dusting every insect the frog comes near so I actually get annoyed when people talk about dusting feeders.

Thanks for your reply, I don't know what the dung beetles have eaten so I won't feed any more incase they have eaten enterobacteria.
