 Best feeder insect

I read somewhere that cockroaches are the best insects you can give to a reptile. Does anyone know a site that breaks down it’s Ca:P, protein and fats? Wanted to compare it to a silkworm.

That is a good question I have been wondering the same thing about the nutritional value of all feeders. Hopefully someone can send us in the right direction.

Do some searching and you’ll find it. Variety is the very best thing you can feed though.

I went to that site already Saltydog88 but it doesn’t have info on cockroaches (it’s a very good site though). I’ve had a look on the net but couldn’t find anything. I did happen to find lots of receipes for insects though. Receipes for humans I mean - Yuk! Mealworms and pasta anyone I’m sure there’s something out there but not sure where. Further investigation is needed I think.
