if there right in what i am thinking they generally feed on geckos and other small lizards....i know they often take anoles in captivity and sometimes can be maintained on chicken eggs if tube fed.
They often look like and sometimes mis-sold as chionactis occipitalis, but these are completely different and insect feeders
