Description
These are plump, healthy, professionally bred adult female andmale Dubia roaches. Dubia roaches are exceptionally nutritious feeder insects for reptiles, amphibians, arachnids, and many other insectivorous animals.
The females are about four months old. Because they begin reproducing as soon as they become adults, they are likely already pregnant. We also include a few males to keep the process going once the females produce their first batch of nymphs.
We ship very fast, and we overstock orders around 10%.
Our Dubia roaches are exceptionally healthy and vigorous
.
We feed them only whole, natural foods including fruits, vegetables, and grains. We
do not
feed them commercial dog or cat food, or anything like that. We pride ourselves on raising super healthy roaches that make nutritious feeders. All these males and females need to thrive are the right foods and living conditions. Whatever you decide to use them for,
you are starting with supremely healthy stock!
Dubia roaches are famous for their exceptional nutrient value and gutloadability.
They can eat a lot, which means you can fill them with lots of healthy food before feeding them off to your animals. This adds extra nutrition to their already superior nutrition profile.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Please read the following to maximize the chance of live arrival in hot or cold weather. K
eep a close eye on tracking when it is especially hot or cold.
How to maximize the chance of live arrival:
(
1) if your temperature is between 40
°F and 80°F
: No need to do anything special.
(
2) your temp is below 40°F or above 80°F
: We strongly recommend a heat/cold pack and post office hold for pickup. You can expect DOAs if you don't take measures to assure live arrival in these temperatures.
These things are important. Please take care to assure your roaches survive shipping.
A post office hold is free. Your local post office will email you when your package arrives. We use your ebay email. A post office hold greatly increases the chance your Dubia will arrive alive in extreme temperatures.
Please be careful when it is very hot or cold (very = above 80°F or below 40°F). Buying Dubia and other tropical roaches involves risk, but they can be mitigated. We do all we can on our end, but there are things you may need to do on your end.
These may include being aware of your weather forecast, choosing the right shipping method, heat or cooling packs, being home for delivery, post office hold, not letting the package sit overnight at the post office, etc.
When it's hot
(particularly above 80
°F
): A post office hold is best. Cooling packs are second. The main cause of loss
by far
is (a) being out for delivery all day in the heat and (b) being left in a hot location (mail box, porch). If you avoid these two things, you avoid 90% of the risk.
When it's cold
(particularly below freezing): A post office hold with heat pack is best, but it depends on how cold it is. When it's cold there are a few more ways for loss to occur. When it's very cold (near or below freezing), losses are usually caused by (a) sitting in a mailbox, uncollected, with no heat pack, (b) sitting in a post office overnight, uncollected, with no heat pack, and (c) being out for delivery all day with no heat pack. If it's 40
°F
, for example, you might get away with all of these things. If it's 20
°F
, you probably wouldn't get away with any of them.
If there is ever a problem with your order, please contact us directly! You can send us a message here on ebay. For live arrival issues, please contact us within 2 hours of delivery and include photos of all the roaches to confirm their condition. You can attach photos to messages on ebay. If you do this, we will issue a refund for the roaches that didn't make it, or we may discuss other options.
