DISCOID COCKROACHES
(Blaberus discoidalis)
Buy Discoid Roaches for Sale – Ideal Feeder Insects for Reptiles and More
Discoid roaches, approved for import into Canada since 2022, have long been a popular choice among reptile keepers. These exceptional feeder insects offer a range of benefits: they don’t climb or fly, grow to a good size, are quiet, have excellent nutritional value, are long-lived, and are easy to care for and breed.
While their slow growth rate is one of the few drawbacks, discoid roaches typically take about 4 months to reach adulthood and begin breeding. Purebred discoid roaches mature faster and tend to have higher fertility than hybridized stock. While establishing a colony can take some time due to their long maturation period, once they reach maturity, these roaches are steady breeders and will quickly become a favorite in your feeding routine.
Order your discoid roaches today for a reliable, low-maintenance feeder insect that’s perfect for reptiles and other insectivorous pets!
