    Default Are dubia fine for extended car travel?

    What kind of care would I need to take about 50 dubia on a 2 day car trip?

    They should do fine in their enclosure (assuming its a plastic bin). No heat needed, just feed them.

    As long as they don't freeze solid, they'll be perfectly fine. These guys are hard to kill. I'd put them in a deli cup or something with an egg crate, something small that you can put in a bag or purse or pocket if you plan on being away from the car for extended periods of time.

    As long as the Dubia are not subject to temps below 15.5 c (about 60 degrees F.) for extended time you should be fine, so a car trip sounds suitable . Pack them in some eggcrate so they can nest and they will be fine.
