Protein bomb
Rose chafer larvae originate from tropical to subtropical areas of Africa. They are comparable to the native grubs of various beetle species. Rose chafer larvae reach an impressive size of up to 40 mm and are almost as thick as a finger. They can bite hard with their biting tools. However, the animals are otherwise very soft, as the body is only covered by a thick skin and is not protected by a chitin armour, as is the case with Zophobas, for example. Rose chafer larvae should be stored at room temperature and can be fed with fruit or vegetables.

Steppe crickets (Gryllus assimilis)
The steppe cricket (Gryllus assimilis) is one of the most commonly fed feeder insects.

for reptiles and amphibians

small
The steppe cricket is one of the most commonly fed feeder insects. Their calm nature and impressive size make them a preferred meal for almost every insect-eating reptile and also for many soft-feeding birds. Steppe crickets originate from the subtropical climate zones of South America. Females can reach a total length of up to 35 mm, while the males are slightly smaller. The chocolate-brown colouring of the adult animals makes them clearly distinguishable from Mediterranean crickets, which are deep black. Steppe crickets are particularly noticeable to terrarium keepers due to the males' relatively quiet calling and low jumping ability.In contrast to the Mediterranean cricket, the steppe cricket is not as productive. Raising these animals also takes a little longer than with Mediterranean crickets.The animals can be shipped all year round. In summer, care must be taken to ensure that the animals are not exposed to excessive heat, as crickets generate considerable intrinsic heat when particularly active. If this is not sufficiently dissipated, it can cause damage. On the other hand, this is an advantage in winter, as the intrinsic heat in combination with winter packaging enables them to withstand lower temperatures during shipping.Since the crickets are offered in different sizes, they are not just suitable for large lizards. In fact, many owners of medium-sized lizards such as leopard geckos, collared iguanas, juvenile bearded dragons, etc., have recognised a significant benefit in steppe crickets. Medium-sized animals of this species are similar in size to, for example, adult house crickets or short-winged crickets. However, as they are not yet adult, they do not have wings. This means the often bothersome chirping of the males is eliminated.

If it is very cold, we recommend ordering the heat pad as an addition; this offers some protection against losses during the winter months.
The live feeder animals in the shop are only available at this price on Wednesdays—the price per tub is otherwise Fr. 1.00 higher per tub, as we also feed and care for the feeder animals.

Released waxworms (Galleria mellonella)
For reptiles, amphibians, birds or as fishing bait
The caterpillars are usually fed to reptiles, amphibians and birds. However, the waxworm is also becoming increasingly important as fishing bait.
As a treat
For reptiles, amphibians and birds
also as fishing bait
Waxworms were originally known to beekeepers as a pest in beehives. There the larvae of the moth feed on honey. In commercial breeding, the larvae are reared on a feed mash consisting mainly of wheat bran and honey. The caterpillars are usually fed to reptiles, amphibians and birds. However, the waxworm is also becoming increasingly important as fishing bait. The waxworms are offered in 2 different forms: As breeding stock or in released form. The breeding stock offers the advantage that younger waxworms can also be fed, which are significantly smaller than the adult animals. Due to the feed, the caterpillars must taste sweet, which makes the insects very popular with eaters. Waxworms in breeding stocks should, depending on how quickly the animals are to grow, be kept at around 20 to 30 degrees C. The released waxworms should be stored in the refrigerator at about 6-10 degrees C. In this state, the animals no longer take in food.We obtain these waxworms from a breeder for fishing bait. Substances may possibly have been used in the rearing of the worms that can affect the pupation of the animals.

with calcium to support bone formation and skeletal stability.
HabiStat Calcium Shot - extra calcium for reptiles & co.The HabiStat Calcium Shot is a practical supplement to daily feeding and provides your animal with an additional source of calcium - ideal for supporting bone structure, muscles and normal body function. An adequate supply of calcium is particularly important for terrarium animals, as it can actively contribute to the stability of the skeleton.Important: In order for calcium to be utilized by the body and absorbed from food, your animal needs either
sufficient exposure to suitable UVB light, or
vitamin D3 via the diet,
or a combination of both.
The Calcium Shot can therefore be sensibly integrated into a balanced husbandry and feeding concept - especially for species with an increased calcium requirement.Advantages at a glanceAdditional source of calcium as a supplement to the feedSupports a needs-based supply of mineralsIdeal in combination with UVB lighting and/or vitamin D3Practical for regular use in the terrarium

Proterra Reptile Fluid - 2 x 10mlOptimum nutrition for reptiles and other terrarium animals.In their natural environment, reptiles, amphibians and other terrarium inhabitants meet their requirements for vitamins, minerals and trace elements through the food that is available to them there. Although we endeavor to provide a diet that is as close to nature as possible when maintaining terrariums, this is often not completely feasible.Food animals such as crickets or grasshoppers do not usually come from the natural habitat of the terrarium animals and have therefore not enjoyed a natural diet. For cost reasons, these food animals are often either not fed at all or only fed inferior food, which impairs their nutritional quality.
However, to ensure that our terrarium animals are optimally supplied, supplementing their food with JBL PROTERRA REPTILFLUID is a valuable support. It helps to provide the correct dosage of vitamins and close nutritional gaps.
Poison dart frogs, which lose their toxicity in captivity, are an illustrative example of this. The reason for this is the loss of certain ants in their diet that they eat in the wild. Although this loss of toxicity is not a problem for the frogs themselves and they can even be bred in the terrarium without any problems, this example shows how strongly nutrition can influence the characteristics of animals.Suitable for the following species:Anolis, axolotl, bearded dragons, basilisks, tree pythons, boa constrictors, broad-shelled tortoises, Chinese three-legged tortoises, thick-tailed scorpions, spiny-tailed agamas, spiny-tailed iguanas, European tortoises, European pond turtles, rock iguanas, feeder insects, Dyer's frogs, ghost terrors, golden tejus, praying mantises, Greek tortoise, belted tails, collared iguanas, house geckos, Indian star tortoise, Yemen chameleons, coral fingers, corn snakes, ruffed lizards, clawed frogs, charcoal tortoise, king snakes, king pythons, lobed chameleons, tree frogs, iguanas, leopard geckos, newts, musk turtles, night tree snakes, Pakistan agamas, panther turtles, poison dart frogs, red-eyed frogs, red-bellied slider turtles, hinged turtles, horned frogs, Ornate tortoises, Settler's agamas, Scolopendras, Scorpions, Spur-thighed tortoises, Pond turtles, Day geckos, Tokees, Tropical tortoises, Tropical pond turtles, Tarantulas, Water agamas, Water turtles, Desert geckos, Dwarf day geckos
