Hell Danielle,

I’m sure the crystals will be fine, however when I opened the box I noticed it was wet on the corner. I thought it was odd but didn’t really think much else till I opened the box and found the bag of water crystals had opened during transport. Not sure why the bag wasn’t sealed but I can say that it did open and I lost probably a third of the bag. It was a real mess. That’s why the 3 stars
Yes this product it great for my Dubia Roaches and my crickets. I like that it because it give the insects and bugs water to drink.
Quick delivery, as advertised
It’s easy to use!
Fabulous product !!!
Fabulous product !!!
Even in small amounts, the dubias that were doing well are now dying.
We transferred our to a glass jar because the bag leaked a bit. But otherwise very happy with this company and the products. Very fast shipping and quality bugs and products!
We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed it, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
This is my second purchase and I will continue to purchase from them! The roaches ALWAYS arrive on time and most all of them (98%) arrive alive. The roaches love both the feeder food and the bug chug. I will continue to buy from this store. 100% recommend!
Works great but why is it that whenever I use these, some of the roaches start to kill eachother? Could they be fighting over the water?
Helps keep my feeders hydrated and alive

Our dubia roaches gobbled (drank?) it right up. Made them happily hydrated little critters.

Works well and is not messy, my dubia colony completely uses up the gel by the time I need to add more and it’s mess free.

This seems ok for roaches but seems to kill Crickets and turns all the feeder insects either bluer greener or paler. Crickets seem to die. The scent isn’t good either. The orange kind seems better. The orange version is more expensive but hasn’t seemed to kill my insects.
My beardie 'Phoenix 'just loves the roaches, he eats them up as soon as he sees them. And I am happy to have found your company. I called Dragon's Diet for help on my items and the lady that I talked with was friendly and very helpful. Sorry I don't remember her name but I want to thank her for all she does.

Hard to tell if the roaches liked the crystals, but they lived for a while, so I'll give credit to the product.

HOW TO USE BUG CHUG WATER CRYSTALS FOR DUBIA ROACHES
Directions: Scoop a small amount in a shallow feeder dish. Refill as necessary. Reseal the Bug Chug bag and store in a cool, dry place.
WHAT ARE INSECT WATER CRYSTALS?
Have you ever made Jell-O? Water crystals, or polymer crystals, act kind of like that, expanding into a gel as they absorb moisture.
Polymer crystals:
- Are comprised of a long line of repeating molecules
- Turn to gel as they absorb moisture
- Can absorb hundreds of times their weight in moisture
This is why they are a great source of hydration for insects. As a gel, they can’t cause your feeders to drown. They are natural, long-lasting, and effective at getting the job done. Besides hydrating insects, polymer crystals are used in garden soil, disposable diapers, and at florist shops to keep flowers fresh longer.
DO DUBIA ROACHES NEED WATER?
If you’ve got a reptile with a healthy appetite, chances are, you’re ordering feeder insects a lot (or you have a subscription). So you need to keep those feeders alive long enough for your dragon to eat them. Water helps with that, and it keeps your roaches healthy and nutritious. It can prevent health problems such as protein overload or physiological stress.
But giving the bugs a water dish? That’s not really an option. Roaches, crickets, and other feeders easily drown.
Dealing with a sponge or complex watering system can become tedious and unsanitary. Our Bug Chug doesn’t even require you to mix or measure anything. Just open, place a scoop in a dish, and you’re done. Your roaches will thank you.. But your reptile will thank you more. (Yum!)
