About Dubia Roaches

Dubia Roaches is a reptile shop based in Wichita, Kansas, serving hobbyists and keepers across the south-central part of the state. Wichita's growing reptile community makes local shops like this one a practical alternative to ordering feeders and supplies through the mail. With a 2.5-star rating from 8 reviews, there's room for improvement, but the shop fills a real gap for Kansas keepers who need live feeders and reptile basics without a long drive. If you're in the Wichita metro, it's worth a call before ordering online.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes of dubia roaches do you carry?
Most feeder roach suppliers stock multiple sizes, from small nymphs around a quarter inch for juvenile reptiles up to large adults for full-grown bearded dragons and monitors. It's best to call ahead to confirm which sizes are currently available, since stock levels shift based on colony cycles.
Can I start my own dubia roach colony with purchased roaches?
Yes, dubia roaches are a popular choice for colony starters because they reproduce steadily and don't climb smooth surfaces or make noise. You'll want a mix of adult males and females along with some nymphs to get a self-sustaining colony going.
Do you sell live reptiles in addition to feeders?
Reptile shops focused on feeders may carry a limited selection of live animals, but availability varies. Calling the shop directly at (888) 833-8242 is the quickest way to find out what's currently in stock.
How should I store dubia roaches after purchase?
Dubia roaches do best in a ventilated container kept between 75 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, with egg crate or cardboard pieces for them to hide in. Feed them fresh fruits, vegetables, and a dry grain mix to keep them nutritious for your reptile, a practice called gut-loading.
Are dubia roaches legal to own in Kansas?
Yes, dubia roaches are legal in Kansas, unlike some other feeder insects that are restricted in certain states due to invasive species concerns. They're one of the more widely accepted feeder insects precisely because they can't survive cold climates if they escape.
What reptiles are dubia roaches a good feeder for?
Dubia roaches are well suited for bearded dragons, leopard geckos, blue-tongued skinks, tegus, and many chameleon species. Their high protein and moisture content makes them a nutritionally solid staple feeder, especially when gut-loaded properly before feeding.
