Wheat Beetles Cultured on Nutritious Wheat Berries!
Sitophilus granarius
Also called Wheat Weevils, Granary Weavils
Small Pet Feeders only uses the best of ingredients when culturing our insects, and to optimize the health and nutrition of these particular Wheat Beetles, we culture these insects on high quality Wheat Grains (Wheat Berries), the same seeds used to grow wheat grass, and an excellent source of nutrition for all forms of life.
Never need to be watered or fed!
Produce for 3-6 months!
The granary weevil is found throughout the temperate regions of the world and in cool upland areas of the tropics. It is a pest of stored maize, wheat, and other grains, so should be cultured and contained responsibly. Both adults and larvae feed on internally on various grains. We personally use Wheat Grains for our Wheat Beetle cultures. These are very slow to culture, but can be sped up by placing on a warm area or a heat pad.
Wheat Beetle cultures are fantastic because they continue producing food for your frogs for literally months! And the best part is they require no maintenance whatsoever. Just keep them in a warm place, the live beetles will lay eggs on the grains inside the culture, and when the larvae hatch they burrow deep inside the grain where it feeds on the sustenance inside until it's ready to emerge as an adult beetle.
Again these cultures require absolutely no maintenance! Just open the culture inside your frog or pet tank, and close it when enough jump out to feed your little pets. These are really awesome feeders for people looking to save a little money with bugs that will continuously produce themselves for about 3-6 months!
A great prolific feeder for dart frogs and small amphibians.
Shipped in 16 oz cup with grains, media (coffee filter or excelsior), and polyfiber mesh lid.
