Hi, My name is Max and I am a 14-year-old reptile keeper who is getting a bearded dragon shortly. My question for today is what Insects can I use as a staple other than Dubia roaches? My mom absolutely despises roaches and won't let them anywhere near the house. So I've been looking online trying to find alternatives. I was thinking mealworms as they seem easier to care for but according to the internet, their levels of chitin make them a bad staple. So what can I do instead? Or am I just overreacting and mealworms make a fine staple even though they're not ideal? I just wanted a little clarification on what type of bugs I should breed to use as a staple. Thanks.
