About live locusts
Our live locusts are farm-reared, hand checked, and packed fresh in ventilated tubs with cardboard substrate. They are a high-protein staple feeder for many insectivorous reptiles, with less noise and smell than crickets.
Choose the size and pack that suits your reptile, then order once or set up a regular delivery with our subscription service. Subscribers get ongoing discounts, free rewards, app access, and handled-for-you support at no extra cost.

Sizing guide
These are approximate live lengths and natural variation occurs. Use age only as a starting point; check the individual animal’s head and mouth size and choose smaller if unsure.
| Size | Approx. live length | Common starting point |
|---|---|---|
| Hatchling | 5–10mm | Very small hatchlings and tiny insect-eaters that can comfortably take this size. |
| Small | 10–12mm | Young or smaller insect-eaters, including young geckos and small juvenile lizards. |
| Medium | 12–20mm | Growing bearded dragons and other medium-sized juvenile insect-eaters. |
| Large | 20–30mm | Larger juveniles and medium-sized adult insect-eaters that already take this size comfortably. |
| XL | 30–45mm | Adult bearded dragons and other larger adult insect-eaters already taking large prey confidently. |
| Adult | 45–60mm | Large adult insect-eaters already taking full-grown locusts confidently. |
Care and feeding
Keep locusts warm, dry, and well ventilated, ideally around 25-32C. Offer leafy greens such as kale, spring greens, or dandelion, and gut-load for 24 to 48 hours before feeding.
Split larger packs across more than one tub if needed and remove uneaten greens daily to keep the colony clean.

Common questions
How long will they live? With warmth, ventilation, and fresh greens, locusts usually keep well for one to two weeks.
Can I pause my subscription? Yes. You can skip, pause, reschedule, or cancel from your account before the next dispatch is prepared.
Are locusts suitable for chameleons? Yes, when correctly sized. Their movement makes them a useful feeder for many chameleons.
