Hi, I have Dubia roaches that I deep froze at -15C Celsius that are already three years deep frozen.
They still look and smell the same when I froze them three years ago.
My ants are still accepting them, although they don't have another choice because its the only protein I feed.
Does anyone have practical experience with the shelf life of deep frozen feeder insects ?
I will do an experiment next feeding time and present also fresh Dubia roaches and check if there is a big difference in acceptance of the fresh vs frozen.
So basically which one they like more and if they ignore the old ones totally.
So far I only presented the deep frozen ones so maybe they accept them because its the only protein source I offer.
(Additionally I offer sugar Water and plain Water )
Greetings
