Males always die quickly and here's more to add for your colony. Or good cheap feeders for larger reptiles. We were previously known as The Dubia Shack on FB but have changed our name. Adult dubia to add to your colony for all your reptiles, birds, chickens, amphibians, etc. Fed a base of chow we have made ourselves for several years now along with fresh fruits and vegetables. They are hydrated before shipment and ship well. All of our dubia ship in a zip tied secure cotton bag, no plastic. More costly for us but this ensures optimal air flow and after 3 years shipping we have been happy with this method. We usually ship Monday through Thursday to avoid the weekend Sunday layover if there is a ship delay. Ship we try for 1 handling day but can be 2 if busy or weather is an issue. For LAG (live arrival guarantee) you need to have post office pickup, not delivery to home. We send overage amounts on all orders but if DOA please send a photo of all the bugs we sent within 2 hours of post office pickup. Please be sure to check your tracking number for estimated delivery date. HAWAII and FLORIDA - WE DO NOT SHIP
