Livefood UK Live Feeder Cockroach Blaptica Dubia Large size range 24-35mm Roach (Tub of 80)

This provider of roaches has been my go-to for over a year just for feeding my Crested Gecko.I have recently decided to move my chameleon, scorpion and 2 tarantulas over to these dubias instead of Locusts and it's been a dream for me.Dubia Roaches are the perfect feeder for most insectivores since they are easy to gut-load and aren't very messy. They are easy to clean since their only mess is really from their poop which can be cleaned by tilting the pen, and then hoovering what falls, also they are practically odourless, especially when compared to the very smelly locusts.

This came within a couple of days of ordering, despite amazon telling me it would take a week. Unfortunatly I don't seem to have as much good luck as other buyers. 6 of 80 came dead and the only living male adult (1 dead) but looks pretty battered, fingers crossed he makes it! Though I am fully aware I am paying for "large" roaches and not "adult" so I can't make any complaints about that, just hoping some younger ones are male too.My only real issue was the baby crickets/locusts that came with. In one container, a dead one, in 2 others, a live one in each. I managed to catch one but one I didn't notice and is now living with my roaches. I get roaches to avoid dealing with jumping and escaping insects, so unfortunatly now I can look forward to a baby cricket/locust making its way into my house when I go to feed the roaches or my beardie.

One of the 80 has an issue and is dying or disabled. I was gonna try to nurse it back to health but thought better and have dispatched it for the good of the crew.I ordered large because I was hoping for a few weeks of training before they began their careers, but I have quite a few adults here so we commenced the Roach Races early. A bonus because Thor has already won my money back and enough extra to feed them for a few weeks while the others get gains.

Healthy on arrival, well packaged and some even with fresh shed

This is the only place I’d buy dubias from. Always arrive in pristine condition and very timely delivery.

Perfect, as described and all alive. They are in plastic containers 20 roaches in 4 containers and all packaged in one cardboard box so great for those who don't like bugsWill buy again

Most came well and healthy did have a few dead ones. Male to Female ratio isn’t the best but over all good quality.
