How to Keep Dubia Roaches: A Few Quick Tips

If you’re looking for a low-maintenance feeder insect, you just can’t beat Dubia roaches! Here’s a quick look at how to keep them safe and healthy for your bearded dragon to enjoy.

Where to Keep Dubia Roaches

Store them in a solid colored airtight plastic bin (they like it dark). Make sure the sides of your bin are smooth so they can’t crawl out.
Place the bottoms of egg cartons vertically in the bin to give them a place to crawl around. Keep the cartons a few inches away from the top of the bin.

Where to Keep Dubia Roaches

For roaches that are already the size you want, keep the temperature between 50 and 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
To encourage growth, keep the temperature close to 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
You’ll only need a heater if you are keeping your roaches in a cold garage or basement, or another place that will be less than 50 degrees Fahrenheit.

What to Feed Dubia Roaches

Every other day, offer roach chow and large fruit and veggie slices in a shallow feeding dish.
Never offer cat food, dog food, meat, or rotten food (mold will kill them).
Clean out uneaten food every day or two.
Avoid using a water bowl since roaches drown easily. Instead, use water crystals or gel, or hydrate with fruits and veggies.
