House flies (Musca domestica)

Drosophila Mite Separator The Drosophila mite separator is a practical aid for the hygienic preparation of feeder insects. It reliably separates mites from Drosophila (food flies) before they are fed to reptiles, amphibians or other insectivores. This reduces the risk of mite transmission and supports clean feeding. Product features - at a glance - Effectively separates mites from Drosophila - Facilitates the hygienic preparation of feeding flies - Reduces the risk of mite transmission - Quick and easy to use - Suitable for daily feeding - Ideal for terrariums and breeding - Reusable and easy to clean The Drosophila mite separator was specially developed to separate mites from the Drosophila before feeding. Especially in terrariums and insect breeding, mites can multiply quickly and be unintentionally transferred to terrariums. (Food mites do not go to terrarium animals such as reptiles and amphibians) By using the mite separator, the food flies can be hygienically prepared before feeding. The Drosophila are separated, while mites remain in the container or are separated out. This contributes to cleaner feeding and the well-being of the animals. The mite separator is easy to use, quickly ready for use and is suitable for both hobby keepers and professional breeders. Zoo Roco tip Use the mite separator regularly, especially with freshly purchased or home-bred Drosophila. Clean the tool after use to prevent mites from accumulating again.

Giant mealworms - Tenebrio molitorThe mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) - mealworms are classic food for soft-feeding birds. For birds also available in small quantities for reptiles Giant mealworms are mealworms in which a special breeding method causes the larvae to pupate much later. As a result, the larvae become much larger and almost reach the size of Zophobas. Nutritional values, storage and all other parameters correspond to those of normal mealworms.We obtain the giant mealworms from a breeder of fishing bait. Substances that may affect the pupation of the animals may have been used in the breeding of the worms.The mealworm is actually the larva of the mealworm beetle. It hatches from an egg and grows to a size of approx. 25 mm after moulting several times. Finally, the beetle larva pupates, from which another beetle emerges. Mealworms are among the oldest commercially bred food animals. They are relatively easy to breed and are produced in large numbers. Mealworms are actually pests that are mainly known from grain mills, as the larvae prefer to feed on flour or its waste products. As it is not possible to use insecticides in mills, it is difficult to deal with an infestation.Mealworms are classic food for soft-feeding birds. Hundreds of tonnes of the beetle larvae are produced for this purpose throughout Europe every year. A bird's stomach is well prepared for this type of food. A mealworm consists mainly of a hard, chitinous shell and has few nutrients due to its rather simple diet. However, a reptile's stomach is poorly prepared for these conditions. If too many or only mealworms are fed to reptiles, deficiency symptoms or obesity can occur. It can also be recognised from the animals' faecal residues that mealworms are not digested properly. Feeding mealworms with vegetables or fruit before feeding them only has the effect of a certain vitaminisation, which could also be achieved by pollinating the beetle larvae with a vitamin preparation. The high fat content of mealworms is another reason why the larvae should only be given to reptiles as supplementary food.For many bird lovers, however, they are the staple food of their favourites and are mainly bred for this purpose. At temperatures below 10 degrees C. the animals become motionless but are not dead. This can be utilised for storage. At temperatures of 6-8 degrees C. the animals can be stored for several weeks without food.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 where the parcel can be delivered.We accept no responsibility for parcels that are delivered late or collected late.The live food animals in the shop are only available at this price on Wednesdays - the prices per tin are otherwise CHF 1.00 per tin higher, as we also feed and care for the food animals.

Mealworms are among the oldest commercially bred feeder animals. They are relatively easy to breed and are produced in large quantities. Mealworms are actually pests, mainly known from grain mills, as the larvae prefer to feed on flour or its by-products. As it is not possible to use insecticides in mills, it is difficult to control them if infested. Mealworms are classic food for soft-feeding birds. For this purpose, hundreds of tonnes of the beetle larvae are produced in Europe every year. A bird's stomach is well prepared for this type of food.

If too many or only mealworms are fed to reptiles, deficiency symptoms or obesity may occur. It can also be seen from the faecal residues of the animals that mealworms are only insufficiently digested. Feeding the mealworms with vegetables or fruit before feeding them only results in a certain vitaminisation, which could also be achieved by dusting the beetle larvae with a vitamin preparation. The high fat content of the mealworms is another reason why the larvae should only be given to reptiles as supplementary food. For many bird enthusiasts, however, they are the basic food for their pets and are mainly bred for this purpose. At temperatures below 10 degrees C. the animals become motionless but are not dead. This can be used to advantage for storage.

Zophobas as food animals / food insectsZophobas are very popular with larger lizards and make a great change to the reptile's daily routine. NO staple food a great change high nutrient content Zophobas are not suitable as a staple food, but should only be fed as a variety. The nutrient content of zophobas is higher than that of mealworms. Make sure that the Zophobas are not in the terrarium for long! A pupated Zophobas can harm a young, small or sick animal!   Feed the Zophobas a varied diet: peppers, lettuce, dandelion, apples, pears, melons, berries, courgettes, turnips and also fish food or wholemeal flakes are eaten. Remember that only a well-fed feeder animal will produce a high-quality meal.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 where 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.

Buffalo worms / cereal mould beetle larvae (Alphitobius diaperinus) Cereal mould beetle larvae, also buffalo worms called, are another type of beetle larvae that are fed both to terrarium animals and to soft-eating birds. for smaller reptiles and birds 1-1.2cm Cereal mould beetle larvae, also called buffalo worms, are another type of beetle larvae that are fed both to terrarium animals and to soft-eating birds. The buffalo worm only grows to about 10 to 12 mm long and is therefore mainly of interest for smaller animals. Cereal mould beetle larvae are also known as pests in Central Europe. However, they do not like cold temperatures and should also be stored at about 20 degrees C. As the animals are very active and therefore have a high metabolism, the worms should be fed regularly with flour and fruit during storage, otherwise the animals lose a lot of weight and also pupate quickly.

Ovenfish Ovenfish are primitive insects that grow to about 10 to 12 mm in length. They are often also referred to as silverfish. 10-12mm Variety for reptiles and amphibians Ovenfish are primitive insects that grow to about 10 to 12 mm in length. They are often also referred to as silverfish. The animals are known as pests in bakeries etc. and love a dry, warm climate. Breeding is a lengthy process, as the animals take about 3 months to reach adulthood. As the animals are not particularly productive, this species of insect cannot be bred commercially in larger quantities and therefore only plays a minor role as a feeder animal. However, some terrarium keepers feed ovenfish to smaller reptiles for variety.
