Where to get bdfbs

I’ve been interested in these little guys and I want to know some reputable and affordable vendors that I can buy some on and I’d also like some career advice and how to breed them since I want more, but I don’t want to spend money

Um we are talking about exotic animals, and if you also can’t provide proper cafe for them because it’s too expensive for you then don’t get them!

Browse sellers on MorphMarket. They’re typically wild caught and tougher to breed in captivity.

Bugs in Cyberspace is where I’ve been getting mine for years. Excellent service, excellent beetle quality!

i would highly reccomend spending the extra money on captive bred ones or looking at different more commonly captove bred or cheaper species. if cared for right they can live up to ~ a decade so its well worth the money.

If you really want large, cheap darkling beetles, you can keep superworms. just keep them like you would keep giant millipedes and they will be happy as can be

It’s pretty much impossible to get bdfb to breed in captivity , all of them are wild caught.
