I was wondering if $10 for 50 mixed size dubia roaches is a good price.

There is a guy kinda close that breeds and sells feeders and this is his price.

Thanks,
Kevin

That's a great price ... particularly if you can get some adult females or nymphs close to their last molt.
I have sold them for .50 each ... .25 ea. for 1000+
50 from me would be at least $25 plus shipping.
Incidentally, I have no roaches for sale right now (just so everyone knows)

I do have some dubia right now.

However, I'm like Brad. I sell 50 medium to large nymphs/adults for $25 plus shipping. If you truly want mixed population, or only smaller nymphs to immediately feed, it might be a it would be less.

If you don't have to pay shipping this usualy saves you between $6-$9 in itself.

Sounds like you'll get a good deal.

Thanks,
I'm planning on getting 2-300 to start a breeding colony.
I've been reading up on them and they seem even easier than crickets which I raised before.
