Part of this is not on the page we cite. We opened it on 10 Aug 2026 and some of the degrees above are not stated there. The values above may still be right, but we cannot show you where they came from, and nobody here has checked them against a second source. Anything about a sick animal goes to a qualified exotic vet, not to a page. dubiaroaches.com

Drawn from the stated numbers. Only what the sheet states is drawn inside.

Why

The rectangle carries the exact width-to-height ratio of the figures above it, and the ruler under it places that width on the 0–250 cm scale every sheet here shares, so two species still compare at a glance. Nothing is added that the sheet does not name: a lamp drawn on a sheet that never mentions one would be invented equipment. What the sheet leaves out is listed rather than left blank, because an empty tank reads as « none needed ».

What your climate adds

This sheet states a range to hold. Your local climate decides how much work holding it is. Pick the nearest city: nothing is sent anywhere, the choice stays in this browser.

Diet

Feeding rhythm

every 2–3 dAs an adult
14Meals in 28 days

Twenty-eight days, one row. Each band is a meal window. The sheet gives several ages on one line; this is the adult figure.

Why

The windows widen as they go because the interval is a range: four meals after a 10–14 day cycle land anywhere between day 40 and day 56.

The sheet statesinsectivores; dubia roaches, discoid roaches, crickets, grasshoppers, silkworms & moths, waxworms & moths, superworms, mealworms, black soldier fly larvae & flies, and hornworms; Juveniles should be fed daily, and adults should be fed every 2-3 days

Common questions

Can I handle it?

Best not. The skin is fragile and it leaps and glides away the moment it is startled.

Does it really glide?

Yes, using skin flaps along the body and tail. The enclosure must be tall and completely sealed.

What does it eat?

Crickets and other insects at night. Feeding is simple and cheap.

Is it easy to keep?

Moderately, but most are wild-caught, so allow a quiet settling-in period before you judge the animal.

Not stated: The heat sourcethis sheet names only the cool side: « cool 24-29 °C / night 22-27 °C »

Every line above is deduced from a value this sheet states, and names which one. Nothing here is a general recommendation. What the sheet does not state is listed too, rather than left out: a kit that looks complete is worse than one that names its gap.

What this sheet states

This sheet states 5 of 7 of the fields this product runs on. What is missing turns something off: day/night engine and awake count on the globe, the diet section. We show the gap rather than fill it with a plausible number.

UVB is measured but does not count: it is absent from 421 of 678 sheets, and on most of them that is not a gap, since a nocturnal snake's sheet has no reason to state a UV index. Counting it would call the library incomplete without cause.
