Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Upon arrival, empty the critters into your storage container and provide food and water crystals. Roaches enjoy fresh fruits and veggies, but PLEASE DO NOT FEED onions, garlic, cucumbers, or avocados. Remember, what you gut-load into the animals goes into your pet.
We do not recommend dishes of water as these critters are prone to drowning in very shallow water. Water crystals in a dish or a wet sponge may be used as a water source.
If the weather has been cold, please allow one or two hours for the critters to come to room temperature, at which point they should start moving and resuming normal activity. Contact us immediately with any questions or issues.
