Dubia Cockroaches

A nutritious, high-quality live food for reptiles, amphibians and insect-eating birds.

Dubia cockroaches are an excellent choice for keepers looking for a nutritious, easy-to-care-for feeder insect. They are becoming increasingly popular as a staple live food for reptiles such as bearded dragons, geckos, chameleons and other insect-eating species.

Compared with many other feeder insects, Dubia roaches offer a good balance of protein, nutrients and relatively low fat, making them a valuable part of a varied and balanced diet. Their solid body provides a good amount of edible food, while their slower movement can also make them easier for many reptiles to catch and eat.

A Great Staple Feeder

Dubia cockroaches can make an excellent staple feeder insect, but as with any live food, they should be part of a varied and balanced diet appropriate for your reptile's species, age and nutritional requirements.

For the best nutritional value, feeder insects should also be gut-loaded with nutritious food before being offered to your reptile. Dusting with an appropriate calcium or vitamin supplement may also be recommended depending on the species and your individual animal's dietary requirements.

Choose the size that best suits your reptile and give them a nutritious, convenient and natural live-food option.
