Stick insect eggs?

[sam432]

haha you thought wrong section lol but seriously if i had excess eggs would it be safe to feed them to my fish (various tropical fish) or maybe a friends pond fish (large gold fish, sturgeon, koi some others i forget)

Thanks

Any one know if it is completely safe?

If I had them my self, as part of a proper diet, to supplement them, I probably would give it a go. I have fed all sorts of things to my fish, generally does no harm as part of a proper diet.

In some countries, ants eggs are fed almost exclusively to fish, so I would guess stick insect eggs might well be safe and at least partly nutritious.

Let us know how you get on?

I give my friend all my Indian stick ova for his fish and he has not had any problems. It depends on size of ova and the size of the fish.

That's sooo old skool. My Granddad used to do that....


I'd let them hatch, then feed them to the fish. That's what I used to do with my goldfish when I had sticks.
