Desert locust (Schistozerca gregaria)The desert locust (Schistozerca gregaria) is one of the largest commercially bred food animals. Females reach a total length with wings of over 75 mm in some cases. popular food animal for reptiles and amphibians larger than the migratory locust medium The desert locust is one of the largest commercially bred food animals. Females reach a total length with wings of over 75 mm in some cases. Males usually remain somewhat smaller. This means that desert locusts are up to 30% larger than, for example, the migratory locust (Locusta migratoria). The animals are pink-grey in colour after moulting. Over the next 6-10 days, the colouring changes to a strong yellow, especially in the males. However, the animals have the most beautiful colouring and patterning during the juvenile and subadult stage. Here, the animals are also coloured lemon yellow with a black pattern. It is precisely this colouring that arouses the prey drive in many reptile species, which makes the desert locust particularly popular with many terrarium keepers.Unfortunately, the desert locust is not as productive as the migratory locust and rearing the animals takes up to 2/3 longer. On the other hand, it can be bred almost all year round, as it is not too demanding on special types of food.The desert locust is an excellent food insect because it can usually survive shipping without damage, even in extreme heat and cold, and can survive for up to 2 weeks after shipping without the addition of food.Desert locusts are generally accepted by all lizards. Experience has shown that they are particularly favoured by large lizards such as bearded dragons, water dragons, basilisks, varans, ruffed lizards etc.. They are particularly popular with many species of chameleon, as they are particularly attracted to the yellow colouring of juvenile and sub-adult animals.Order by Sunday evening - delivery on ThursdayOrders received by Sunday evening will be dispatched by A Mail on Wednesday or Thursday.Please enter a recipient address to which the parcel can be delivered.We accept no responsibility for parcels that are delivered late or collected late.The live crickets in the shop are only available at this price on Wednesdays - the prices per tin are otherwise Fr. 1.00 per tin higher, as we also feed and care for the crickets. Even with the greatest care, it can happen that feed animals die due to temperature fluctuations or unpredictable events.
