The professional dubia eaters

[Kassaundra]

I posted a couple of videos of the chicky babies eating dubias, they are just amatures, but here is a video of the professionals.

Kassaundra,

You have some very well mannored ladies there. No fighting, pushing and squaking. Just standing patiently waiting their turn!

 

[so lucky]

I was impressed that you were feeding them with your fingers. I know dubia roaches are pretty big, but I would have been afraid of coming away with a couple of fingers missing. But maybe that's just my rude birds.

heh, if it was my 'herd' of chickies i'd have lost the whole can to the one that has to dive bomb me to be the first one on the treats! she always tries to be the 'special' one and just can't eat her treats with the others if they get to it first! the spoiled brat! in her process of getting their first she always knocks it out of my hands!

LOL they don't seem so well mannored when your in the middle of it all. lol

They have never drawn blood or anything on my fingers, but they do sometimes (a lot) over shoot the dubia and get my fingers. I wear medical type gloves b/c I don't like handling the dubias bare handed and they have torn many, many gloves.
