Dubia!

[Bradyloach]

Well I just want to say some things about my dubia colony!

My setup is 2 egg flats stacked horizontally, I drop a couple pieces of fruits and veggies in there enclosure I have some oatmeal laying there too.

I bought around 25 females and 50 males but I thinned the males out to around 20 I believe.

How long do I wait to start feeding them to my sav?
When will I know that I have lots?

The box will be swarming with bugs, when you see tons of little baby roaches running around in there you will know it's heading in the right direction.

[Bradyloach]

There's a little bit of little wee nymphs I love it :)

Its funny, I don't e anything that eats them but I'd kind of like to have a dubia colony. Weird.

[Gungirl]

I'm with you on that one Norm. I can't wait to get a lizard latter on so that I can have a colony. It's the only way my hubby will let me get them. :D

[Bradyloach]

Haha it's cool to watch them grow! They shed too! I want to make a feeding schedule for them tho

[BarelyBreathing]

Get colonies! You can breed them and sell them to reptile keepers.

Brady, I agree with Wayne.

[Bradyloach]

Every time I see somebody say they hate the white ones, I think of a story somebody told me about their bearded dragon. He gave him white ones, and the poor lizard had no idea what to do with them...

[Bradyloach]

When do they turn white?!? Ewww

[BarelyBreathing]

Right after they shed.

[infernalis]

They are only white for like a day Brady..

[BarelyBreathing]

I like the way they look when they're transitioning from white to brown. They have kind of a silver coloring to them.

On a side note, I saw a European golden roach (or something like that) today that was really, REALLY pretty. Apparently they make horrible feeders, otherwise I'd start a colony.
