I read somewhere that it is essential that you feed your B. giganteus roaches cooked hamburger meat (plain) as part of their diet to prevent lack of protein which causes wing biting and sometimes cannibalism.
I feed mine cooked hamburger meat once a week, and not one has ever been bitten.
So I think feeding them meat as part of their diet is a good idea.
After all in the wild they eat bat carcasses, that is meat which gives lots of protein.
I also feed mine fresh fruits/vegetables, dog or cat kibble, and sometimes as a treat white bread.
