Starting With Dubia Roaches

We’re launching with Dubia roaches first — the most popular live feeder in the hobby for good reason. Dubias are higher in protein and lower in chitin than crickets, they’re quiet, they don’t jump, they don’t smell, and they’re extremely easy for tarantulas to catch. They’re the feeder most experienced keepers end up switching to.

ProteinHigher protein content than crickets — better nutritional value per feeding
ChitinLower chitin (exoskeleton) content — easier to digest for smaller tarantulas
BehaviorSlow-moving and can’t climb smooth surfaces — easy prey for terrestrial species
MaintenanceNo noise, minimal odor, long lifespan — easier to keep alive between feedings
