Red runners are what crickets wish they were. The Gigachads of the insect feeder world if you will. Most do not know this. But in this video I go over everything you need to know to be successful with keeping and breeding red runners. I use these to feed to my crested geckos with amazing feeding responses. I could not recommend them more!

Wow I wish my bf was breading red runners in his closet😍😍😍
Respect how straight up you are! Cheers mate
Did someone give you the red runner idea? This is so good, I think more people will gravitate to it! 🥳
Nope, I had heard of them before and took the plunge
Awesome! Been looking for something I can breed from home to feed my geckos, thanks!
Great video bro keep it up !
I'm going to try this out ASAP
Congrats on 1k subs and very informational video with very good camera shots.
THANKS!!!
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
3:32 26 to 32 Celsius
Ahh the beebop theme was perfect
I thought so but the algorithm didn't lol
I want to make an spoof of the naruto season 2 intro but it's me and my goats and my friends and competition in the gecko world
I'm super interested in a starter pack! Living in MN no fear of them getting outside and taking over.
Perfect!
forbidden chocolates 🤣😂
I will admit someone told me that and I had to repeat it lol
Wow I just left a comment about using the lugarti food as feeders 😂
That’s some gourmet food for the roaches
Haha true
No wonder my dubias always hide. I bought some to feed my gecko that I'm getting this Saturday. I only saw them eat once when I bought them last Saturday. I need to get a black box.
Hi, with the chicken feed. Do you grind the pellets or just put them straight inside the enclosure?
I get scratch so it's already ground up
I just got started with my runners. Do you use water gel or anything like that or do they get all their moisture from fruit. Maybe i missed that part in the video.
I don't give them synthetic material at all. They get moisture from the fruit
🔥🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏👏
Can I use fish pellets for this? because I don't currently have any oat meals.
Sure
I hear the red runners have a higher protein to fat ratio than crickets do.
Possibly!
Do you just drill holes on lid of the container for ventilation??
No I use a holesaw now!
Can you keep them on a pearlite, vermiculite or zeolite bedding? Like it's done with he crickets?
NO, I actually dont use any substrate now with great success
@@robbysreptiles thanks for the reply
Hi many don’t recommend any substrate at all but u r using chicken feed as substrate…
With the chicken feed, how u remove their frass?
I have stopped using substrate as with experience I found they totally don't need it
Is it safe to feed red runner with raw potatoes? Do u have expirience with raw potatoes feeding?
Sure! Just not alot of nutrience
Hey Robby! I ordered 1/4" on ebay.. when would you expect them to be adults? 2 months or longer?
I ordered some adults and most came dead unfortunately 😒 no live guarantee
They take about 4 months to get full grown maybe
@@robbysreptiles Cool! Thanks for the reply! I was considering ordering more adults but also noticed I only got like 5 females from that seller.. a few lived.
I have a ton of 1/4" so sounds like I'll be playing the waiting game until I can use them as gecko food.
@@ljeads9416 no breeder wants to give up their stock
@@robbysreptiles I've noticed! I started my colony because of your video about 4 weeks ago. I'm tired of crickets and the costs/time at the pet store! I've also noticed nobody has these guys in/around Ohio.. so whenever I'm overstocked they should be easy to sell at the shows!
Can you use oatmeal instead of chicken feed on the bottom?
Yeah should be fine. I even stopped using any substrate with em
How easily do they climb up the sides of the bin?
If it's smooth they can't climb it. If you have a rough tub the baby babies might, icjust do packaging tape around the walls and you're golden
How do you prevent mold?
Ventilation in enclosures and air circulation in the room!
do you take out the egg cases or leave them in?
Just leave them!
You get that website up yet?
No not yet
Is using egg crates that remain after eggs sanitary enough? Chicken eggs can be a potential source of salmonella, so using utilised egg crates can potentially infest feeder insects with something you don't want to be passed on to your pet.
Pressing X to doubt. I wouldn't worry about that at all
Organic fruits only means they’re treated with organic pesticides 👍👍
Which is copper and magnesium or things like that. And it's for specific insects that are eating the plants where they are grown
Can you just use dirt as substrate?
I wouldn't use dirt, just use no substrate
What's the website again? I tried typing it in but I got nothing.
What website?
@@robbysreptiles the one where you sell the red runners
Mine are set up the exact same but they're escaping. I even put Vaseline on the sides. Any tips?
Don't use Vaseline. You're not using a smooth tub. Are you putting a lid on it, males can fly. Use packing tape to line the walls not vasoline
Do the egg cartons need to be paper?
I would say yes, but I will be updating this soon
These videos are 🤌. Hilarious, great upfront information, brilliant edits.
