Diversity is critical when it comes to proper diet. Every feeder insect contains very different nutritional content. Experts agree, by feeding a variety of insects you can cover all your pets nutritional needs.

Diet diversity is king.

“By expanding the dietary offerings provided to captive reptiles, we can ensure they are exposed to a broader range of nutrients, as well as limit the likelihood of the pets developing a nutritional disease.”

Dr. Mark Mitchell - Past President of the Association of Reptilian and Amphibian Veterinarians

“This author believes that provision of a diet as varied as possible is the best approach to maintaining insectivorous reptiles.”

Dr. Ryan De Voe - Senior Veterinarian at the North Carolina Zoological Park

“You wouldn’t feed a kid McDonalds for every meal. The same is true for your reptile. If you feed your pet the same 1 or 2 foods everyday, you’re making a huge mistake”

Cameron Young - Founder of Center of Snake Conservation

What's Included?

Your insect deliveries will contain a custom curated quantity of 4+ insect species. We design your subscription around your pet’s species and age to give them the perfect nutritional make-up they need to be healthy.

You’ll receive a delivery once every two weeks. This way, the insects you get are always fresh, and you’ll never have to worry about caring for them. We ship all insects with food to keep them healthy until your pet is ready for them. 

We charge a flat rate $4.99 shipping fee. We know everyone likes free, but this way we can make sure your package arrives in an estimated 1-3 working days. 

The satisfaction of reptile owners and their pets is our number one priority. If you have any issues with your shipment at all, simply contact support@reptibites.com and we will try our hardest to make things right. That’s the ReptiBites Guarantee.

We always send extra bugs. Shipping live animals doesn’t always go perfectly. This way you’re covered in the case of minor insect death. This also gives you the flexibility to make adjustments to your pet’s feeding schedule as you see fit. If you find you have way too many extras, you can feed the to another pet, dispose of them by placing them in the freezer for a day, or delay your next delivery by a couple days: free bugs!

There’s really three parts to our feeding schedules: 

  • Feeding Frequency: Generally younger and small animals need to eat more often. We match the feeding frequency of our schedules to the wild feeding behavior of your pet’s species. 
  • Feeding Quanity: We leverage a scientific and mathematical approach called metabolic rate. This approach accurately estimates the energy your pet requires based on their age, weight, and species, and how much food they need to meet that need. The schedules in our subscriptions are designed for the typical animal toward the middle of your subscriptions age range. If your pet is younger or older, you may consider making minor adjustments. See our section on ‘making adjustments’ 
  • Diet Diversity: Over the two week schedule, we seek to maximize the diversity of your pets diet while also accounting for the ‘self-life’ of each insect type. 

If your pet is toward the younger or older range of your subscription (if a juvenile), is smaller or larger than other individuals of their age (if an adult), is very active, or needs some help with weight management you may want to consider making minor adjustments to your feeding schedule. 

To do so, first consider your reasons for making the change. Don’t trust your pet. Almost all pets will seem hungry and ‘beg’ for more food. It’s just in their nature! If you think your pet needs a little less food, feed 1-4 fewer insects each feeding, or skip 1-2 feedings per week. If you think your pet needs a little more food, feed 1-4 more insects each feeding. Consult the other guides on our site contact our support team or for more help.

Typically no! Just keep them in a cool dark place and you’re all set. If you notice your Superworms/Dubia Roaches have run out of their water source (carrots), it’s not a bad idea to throw some small vegetable chunks into their containers as a moisture source. Both the Hornworms and Solider Fly Larvae have shorter shelf lives in warm temps, so do your best to keep them cool but the fridge is too cold for them!

“Die-off between pet retailer and the home is 81% in a year. The aquarium and reptile industry manifests nearly the same lethality as a slaughterhouse”

Dr. Clifford Warwick

Dr. Byron De La Navarre

“Many reptiles and amphibians die prematurely; malnutrition is often a factor in this early demise.”

Don't Harm Your Pet.

Your pet relies on your to thrive. Be a responsible pet owner. Feed the diet they need. 

A human can’t eat McDonalds for every meal, why should your pet eat one insect type?
