What We Feed Our Roaches (and Why It Matters for Your Reptile)

When you’re buying feeder insects, you’re not just paying for what’s in the cup — you’re buying the care, the diet, and the environment behind it. That’s why we put just as much attention into what we feed our roaches as we do into how we pack and ship them. Every discoid roach from All Angles Creatures is raised in-house, gutloaded with a clean, balanced diet, and delivered in peak condition to give your animal something it can truly benefit from.

Gutloading Done Right — Because It Matters

Gutloading isn’t an afterthought. It’s one of the most important factors in whether a feeder insect actually benefits the animal eating it. A lot of roaches are raised to grow fast and look full, but what they’re fed in the final 48 hours before shipping is often neglected or inconsistent. That’s not how we do it.

Our discoids are gutloaded on a diet we designed ourselves — natural, complete, and chosen specifically for absorption and digestion. We won’t get into the exact formula here, but every ingredient we use has a role: from protein to support muscle development and growth, to moisture-rich produce for hydration, to vitamins and trace minerals to round out the profile. We feed them like they matter, because your animal does.

Nutrition That Transfers to Your Animal

Not all feeders are created equal. Two roaches can be the same size and weight, but only one may actually provide the nutrition your reptile needs. That’s the difference between feeding something that just looks good, and feeding something that delivers real results. We don’t just aim for survival. We raise roaches to support thriving reptiles — energy, appetite, color, and health you can actually see over time.

Whether you’re feeding bearded dragons, tegus, monitors, leopard geckos, or anything else that benefits from roaches, you’re giving your animal something better when the insect is raised right. We’ve seen firsthand how gutloaded roaches improve consistency in feeding behavior, reduce impaction risks, and help animals transition better between life stages. It's not hype. It’s just the result of doing it the right way.

Raised in Our Own Florida Facility

We raise everything ourselves, right here in Florida. That means the environment, the airflow, the humidity, the diet — it’s all under our roof, not someone else's. We don't outsource, repackage, or resell. From breeding to bin cleaning to shipping, it's all handled by our team inside a clean, climate-controlled lab built for the purpose.

When you open a cup of roaches from us, you’re not just getting a scoop of bugs. You’re getting feeders that were raised in the right conditions from day one. There’s no mystery about where they came from or what they were fed. We do it all — and we do it with your animal in mind.

No Guesswork. No Filler. No Garbage Feed.

We’ve all opened feeder shipments before and wondered what went wrong. Why are they so soft? Why do they smell off? Why are half of them tiny? Why does it seem like they were starving before they were boxed up? That frustration is what we built away from. You don’t have to worry about underfed roaches, bad bins, or bugs that look right but deliver nothing. What we ship is clean, stable, and ready to use.

By the time your order leaves our lab, the roaches have been fully gutloaded and prepped to be a reliable part of your feeding routine. They’re not just alive — they’re ready.

Ready to Ship. Ready to Feed.

We know what it feels like to care about what your animal eats. It’s not just about the product. It’s about knowing that someone else is paying attention to the details — so you don’t have to worry about them.

That’s why we raise everything in-house. That’s why we feed the way we do. That’s why every order is packed with care and backed by our no-fine-print live arrival guarantee. Whether you’re trying us for the first time or ordering in bulk, you’re getting the same quality, every time.
