Description
Automatic self-feeding & self-dusting fruit fly system for dart frogs. Flies must pass through a supplement maze before exiting — ensuring every fly is coated with vitamins and minerals. Not just for holidays — use it as a daily feeder until the culture is exhausted.
The Frogfather Self-Dusting Fruit Fly Feeder is a hands-free feeding and supplementing system designed for dart frogs, tree frogs and other micro-insect feeders. It keeps your frogs fed, dusted and healthy — even when you’re not around.
✅ Not Just for Holidays — Use It Daily
Unlike standard holiday feeders, this system is built for everyday use. Place it inside or at the back of the vivarium and leave it running until the fruit fly culture is exhausted. Frogs cannot access the culture, larvae remain inside producing more flies, and the only flies that exit are pre-dusted adults.
🛠 How It Works
- Fits a standard 32oz fruit fly deli cup.
- Add your live fruit fly culture as normal.
- Fill the dust chamber with supplements (e.g.Frogfather All-In-1 Vitamin & Mineral Dust ).
- Flies exit the cup via a maze coated in supplement powder.
- Only dusted adult flies escape into the tank — larvae remain inside.
- The micro-holes are water-resistant — misting won’t wet or clog the powder.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this every day, not just for holidays?
Yes! It’s designed for daily use as well as travel. Place it in the vivarium and leave it running until the culture is exhausted.
Do I need to use Frogfather supplements?
No — any calcium or vitamin powder works. For best results, we recommend the
Frogfather All-In-1 Supplement.
Will misting make the supplement go soggy?
No. The dust chamber is waterproof. The holes are too small for water surface tension to penetrate, keeping the powder dry.
Can frogs climb in and drown?
No. The design prevents frogs from entering or contaminating the culture.
Do larvae escape as well?
No — only wingless/dusted adult flies can exit. Larvae stay inside and continue producing more flies.
What size culture cup does it fit?
It fits standard 32oz fruit fly culture deli cups with ventilation lids.
