Can't find answer to this on boards - sorry if I've missed it, and appreciate suggestions:
I've got 8 T's, and recently decided to switch from feeder crickets to dubia colony (tired of small, and chirping crix in house). Got started colony online, and today gave a 3/4" dubia to my 4" DLS GBB. The T immediately latched onto the dubia's back, but the dubia has been kicking for the last 15 min. Not dying. T not letting go. Is this normal? I realize this is a bigger meal than even 3 or 4 crix (with the GBB will kill & eat in less than an hour), but I'm worried that the roach is still alive and there's the possibility of the T getting hurt (?)
Hope I haven't messed this up. I also put a 1/2" dubia in with a 3" L para, which has shown exactly no interest in the roach.
Appreciate suggestions / thoughts.
Thx,
