This may come down to care and just some common sense that I don't have but I thought if I gave the roaches some cooked oatmeal with nothing but water and some of the roach food then they'd live for longer than right now. Lots have died and I'm not sure if I've saved money by buying in bulk or not.
If their life span is this short then I suggest sending a care sheet with the roaches. Or if I should only feed them Roach food then also say that somewhere. I know some People buy 1/2 lb roaches and they're all eaten within a week but I bought them thinking "they're roaches, they'll live for a while."
The live ones are still fat as advertised and my dragon and gecos love them. I also live at high altitude in Colorado which could contribute to the mortality rate? I dunno.
I paid extra for guaranteed live delivery of 100 dubia roaches. I opened the box immediately upon receiving and found at least 12 dead dubias. The box was packaged well so I don’t know why some died. A few more dubias continued to die within the next couple of days even though I provided appropriate moisture and food. The weather in route was 45 degrees or higher. It was not too cold or too hot.
Great quality. I order Dubia roaches to feed my bearded dragon. Always get more than ordered. Have never had any issues. Great company!
I bought the snack pack!!!! The Dubia roaches and the super worms I got was all alive and plenty of them ...thank you
All of the roaches arrived alive and healthy. They were much more fuller and plump than the ones I buy from the pet stores. My Beardie loved them! We already purchased more and will continue to.
I have had major issues with my previous provider, mainly because their only option for auto-ship uses USPS Ground Advantage, which absolutely sucks!
We were at a reptile expo and needed some dubias and got some there. Quickly realized how much healthier and plump the expo ones were, which led me to search for a new vendor. DD offers USPS Priority so I gave it a shot.
My first order arrived in a timely manner, and the quality/health of the dubias is so much better than before!
Dubia Roaches: LARGE Nymphs by the Pound (some adults)
Great quality, packaging was secure and easy to transfer into container!
Ordered the 1" Dubia Roaches for my bearded dragon after ordering from a competitor that has issues with shipping the last 2 orders. Dubia Deli order arrived quickly and the roaches were fatter as advertised that of there competition! We will be ordering again from Dubia Deli!!
