Adult female dubias make great feeders for large insectivorous or omnivorous reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. Adult females are meatier than males and slow-moving, making them easy to catch for slower species.

These are not old, burnt-out breeders — you will receive a random mix of adult females ranging from freshly molted to several month-old gravid females. If you’re thinking about starting your own dubia colony, you’ll need one male for every three females.

To prevent potential choking when feeding adult dubia, lizards should not be fed dubia larger than their head. Dubias should always be lightly dusted with calcium powder before feeding.

We generally do not recommend buying adults unless you really need instant production. Many places will sell you old breeders. While we don’t do that, adults are still less hardy than nymphs (younger dubia) and will be more susceptible to die in shipping.

We do all counts by weight in grams, and we always weigh heavy to insure over count for dead and undersized dubias.

We do not ship dubias to Florida, Hawaii, or outside the US. This is due to the local laws in those areas.
