If you've picked up a discoid with your finger, you'll notice that the discoids are a lot harder shelled than the dubias. They seem to have a sharp edge too. Everytime my geckos eat a few of them, they need to "twitch" their head left and right several times to get the food down its throat. Anyone seen this happen too? I'm feeding 1.5 to 2 cm ones; maybe I need to use the smaller ones.
Although it seems to me that my geckos had difficulty swallowing the discoids, they'd never regurgitated and the roaches were digested very well. When they ate crickets, I often see cricket parts in their poo, but I'd never seen roach parts in their poo now.
