This is my 3rd time ordering from these guys. Roaches came alive and well with a few dead which is expected. However, this time my roaches came in 2 boxes. I like how they came the other times inside of a tub as it's easier to get them transferred and it seems less died in the tub as apposed to a box. Also I ordered medium this time instead if small. And these roaches are not medium ! They are large. Have to carefully feed my beardie and watch him as he eats them since he is not even q year old and ready for large roaches.This was our second order from this company. Decided to take a risk despite reviews on the first order and was super pleased with it. I had sent a message to them with a concern about some of the packaging reviews and they assured me that they always sent the roaches in a tub and not in a bag, and we were pleased to find that was the case when they arrived. Then on the second order, unfortunately they arrived in a bag, and they were much larger than we were expecting. As it turned out the size was fine for our growing dragon but dealing with them in a bag when we weren’t expecting that, and a package arrived right when we had somebody coming to our house, it was a real hassle and gross. It would be 1000 times better product if we could count on it being in a manageable package when it arrived. Fantastic value though.A very good size for our 14” juvenile Bearded Dragon, he loves them. They shipped pretty quickly and securely, a small portion didn’t survive but we are still pleased overall.These were the perfect size, package food and all arrived alive!!Product shipped fast. All roaches were alive in excessive heat conditions. Will definitely buy again for my bearded dragons. Great price!I always order from DubiaRoaches. This time it was 500 medium. Ordered on a Friday and Arrived today, Tuesday. Not a single dead one. My Beardie loves them and my leopard gecko enjoys chasing them down. The roaches are always fatties, gut loaded, and definitely one of the best insects for reptiles. My Beardie eats about 10 (some days as many as 20) or so a day while the gecko gets about 8 dropped in every other day. I keep them in a plastic tub with their food in a plastic dish. It makes cleanup easier. Be careful of fruitflies. You could ruin a whole setup with those. Always clean up old food. The company does sell food and dehydrated water, those would be the easiest way to feed. Prices have gone up but buying in such large quantities doesn't affect me too much. There's no way I'm counting them, so hopefully there's at least 500. It definitely looks like it.Pickles loves them..... however I wasn't prepared that the inner package had the bugs loose inside and some fell out of the box when opening, fortunately I was opening overtop of the container that I keep them in. Overall very satisfied I will order again if needed and suggest buying the mediums for dragons at least 4 inches nose to booty (tail not included)Dubia roaches are for my reptiles
