Can you start a colony with these roaches?


What is the packaging like? Are they in a plastic cup? Thrown in a cardboard box so they climb out the second you open it? Is it different based on how many you order?

Answer by ChewyJul 08, 2025
Depending on the size and quantity of roaches ordered, they may come in an 8-oz deli cup, a 16-oz deli cup, or a variety of box sizes. The only quantities that come in deli cups are Small 50ct, Small 100ct, Medium 50ct, and Medium 100ct. Anything more than 100 Small or Medium will come in a box. All counts of Large dubia roaches come in boxes. The boxes will likely be one of the two shown in the included picture. The top box is approximately 6.25" x 6.25" x 6.25" and the bottom box is approximately 12" x 6" x 6". If customers prefer to have the dubias contained in deli cups, they need to order the desired amount of either the Small or Medium roaches in a 50 or 100-count and the manufacturer will pack them into the appropriate-sized outer box.

How big are they?

Answer by ChewyApr 19, 2025
These dubia roaches are available in small, medium, and large sizes. The small measures approximately 1/4 of an inch, the medium measures roughly 1/2 an inch, and the large are about 1 inch. See the product photos for more information.

Most of my pet needs are met through chewy and the service is great but I cannot recommend live food through here, the entire experience was disappointing. I ordered a 100 count and a 50 count of dubia roaches on 12/19. The wrong tracking info was attached, I was able to get the correct one through customer service who brushed off my concerns (normally customer service is great) I final got my order delivered on 12/31 and received the 50 roaches and they were mostly alive so no complaints there other than it took forever. Instead of the 100 roaches I received a 100 count of soldier fly larvae which is not what I wanted, worth much less than I paid and won’t be as filling to the lizards.

Would not recommend this seller. I saw the previous reviews and saw people that stated that most of them were dead. But I saw others who had a better experience and so I decided to give it a try. Huge disappointment. Not only were the majority of the small ones dead. The ones I could have used for feedings but the rest were absolutely huge. Like triple the size I ordered based off the description. I know there’s sometimes some that grow a bit but this was way more intense growth spurts than I’ve ever seen. Chewy did give me a full refund which was very appreciated, but it was definitely a waste of time. Buying local is the easiest, I was hoping to find someone who had slightly smaller feeders but this definitely was NOT it. Buyer beware, it also claims to send from facilities closer to your address, mine came from Illinois I believe and I’m in Washington state, so yeah

Dead bugs

Two orders in a row of deceased Dubai roaches. Mentioned it in chat and they blew it off. Perhaps don’t order these if you live in a cold climate.

All the Dubias were dead when I received them. This always happened with the crickets, so I stopped ordering them. Usually the Dubias are good and healthy. When I spoke to a representative for Chewy the said they'd replace the Dubias and here we are 5 days later and no Dubias. I got the original dead ones in 3 days, so I dont know what the hold up is. I live in a small town, with no direct per stores anywhere near me, that's why I get them from Chewy, but here we are with no Dubias for my dragon.

Too many in one box.

I did not realize they were coming in a box that was a single vessel! I thought I would be getting individual containers of 100, not 500 in a box that was not resealable

I did not realize they were coming in a box that was a single vessel! I thought I would be getting individual containers of 100, not 500 in a box that was not resealable. Had to figure out how to house them after opening.

We ordered medium but got more of a mix of small and large. They seem to be dying too quickly. We keep them in a 40 gal breeder tank with a lot of darkness and we ensure to feed them regularly with veggies and gel water. Still it seems they are dying more quickly than with the other dealers we have bought from.

Exactly what I need for my little guy. Love how they have different sizes and the price was reasonable.
