Wood Cockroaches | Medium
(Nauphoeta cinerea)
Crazy Critters offers you the convenience of high-quality live feeder insects at affordable prices, delivered to your door!
Our wood cockroaches (woodies) are available in 3 different sizes:
- small woodies (9mm)
- medium woodies (18mm)
- large woodies (30mm)
As woodies are highly active, they trigger a positive feed response in pets that are motivated to feed by movement.
Woodies are a clean, natural and nutritious option as a staple feeder insect in your pet's diet.
You can feed our insects to your pet:
- frogs
- geckos
- insect-eating birds
- lizards
- predatory fish
- scorpions and spiders
- turtles; and
- wildlife
to provide variety in their diet.
Offering your pet various feeder insects promotes better overall health through a more balanced and nutrient-rich diet.

provides the best source of nutrition
Woodies do not have an adequate calcium:phosphorous ratio for many animals and may require additional calcium before feeding to your pet.
You can achieve a higher calcium content by:
- dusting your insects immediately before offering to your pet; or
- adding the calcium powder to a gutload supplement fed to your insects.
Note: woodies are also commonly referred to as speckled feeder roaches and lobster roaches.
Storage
We recommend that you:
- unpack your woodies on arrival to reduce the risk of losses
- store them at room temperature in a storage container without a lid AND
- apply a 5cm - 10cm strip of Fluon Insect Barrier Paint to the top inside edges of your storage container to prevent escapees!
- raise them on a high-protein diet like Crazy Critters Gutload - Premium Insect Food and provide fresh produce twice a week.
