Turkestan Cockroach (Shelfordella lateralis) – An Active and Easy-to-Keep Feeder
Are you looking for a reliable, nutritious, and exciting feeder insect that will satisfy the appetite of even the most demanding predators? The Turkestan cockroach, also known as the red runner, is an excellent choice that revolutionizes the feeding of exotic pets. Thanks to its unique characteristics, it has become a dietary staple in professional and hobbyist collections worldwide.
Why is the Turkestan Cockroach the Ideal Choice?
- High Nutritional Value: Rich in protein and vitamin B12, with a moderate fat content, they constitute a perfectly balanced meal. Their soft chitinous shell makes them easily digestible even for young and delicate animals.
- Stimulation of Hunting Instinct: These insects are extremely fast and active, which stimulates the natural hunting behaviors of your pet. Importantly, they do not burrow into the substrate, remaining visible and accessible to the predator at all times.
- Universal Food for Many Species: This is a feeder insect eagerly eaten by a wide spectrum of animals. It is perfect as food for:
- Spiders (including tarantulas)
- Mantises at every stage of development
- Ants (as a protein source for the colony)
- Reptiles (bearded dragons, leopard geckos, chameleons) and amphibians
- Clean and Convenient to Keep: Turkestan cockroaches are virtually silent and, with basic hygiene, do not emit an unpleasant odor. Additionally, they cannot climb smooth, vertical surfaces, which greatly simplifies their storage and minimizes the risk of escapes.
Our Breeding – A Guarantee of the Highest Quality
All our feeder insects come from a controlled breeding facility, where we care for their welfare and diet. They are fed a varied mix of high-quality foods:
- Dry base: Oatmeal, bran, and high-protein feed.
- Fresh vegetables and fruits: Carrots, apples, and other hard vegetables that provide vitamins and hydration.
This ensures you are providing your pet with top-class food, full of nutritional value.
Available Sizes:
We offer cockroaches in various stages of development to perfectly match the size and needs of your pet:
- Hatchling (2-3 mm): Ideal for the smallest spiders, mantises, and ants.
- Small (3-5 mm)
- Medium (5-10 mm)
- Large (Imago/Subimago, up to 3 cm): A wholesome meal for adult specimens.
A Quick Guide to Keeping:
Want to keep your cockroaches in perfect condition? It's simple!
- Container: Use a plastic container or an aquarium with smooth walls and good ventilation (e.g., mesh in the lid).
- Furnishings: Place egg cartons vertically inside – they will increase the living surface area and provide shelter.
- Food: Provide constant access to dry food (oatmeal, cat/dog food) and offer a piece of hard vegetable (e.g., a carrot) every 2-3 days as a water source.
