Start your own sustainable feeder colony with a Moonlit Spoodies Starter Peanut Beetle Culture! 🪲✨

Peanut beetles are a convenient, low-maintenance feeder option for a variety of small insect-eating pets and are a great choice if you want to establish your own renewable feeder source at home.

Each starter culture is provided in a deli cup with live peanut beetles and culture medium to help get your colony started. The deli cup is intended as the starter container only — for long-term culturing, you may choose to transfer your colony into a larger, appropriately ventilated container of your own.

Basic Culture Care

Keep your culture in a warm, dry area away from direct sunlight. Avoid excessive moisture, as overly damp conditions can encourage mold and spoil the culture.

As your colony grows, you can transfer it into your own larger ventilated container and add additional food as needed to keep your culture productive.

Cultures may contain multiple life stages depending on colony activity at the time of purchase.

Live feeder insects are sold as feeders only and are not intended for human consumption.
