Starting a dubia colony ... Finally!!

[Terranaut]

So I found some here in Canada an plan to start a colony. I am feeding One beardie and one gecko. Both are adult. How big of a colony do I need to self sustain and feed these 2? I need to decide so I can get them this weekend. I hate crickets so I am excited to not buy more.
I searched but there are many varrying opinions so best to ask the crowd I trust :)

well, I would start with a medium colony (like order 100 assorted roaches) and go from there.

keep them right and you will have extra to sell to other people before too long, they breed like mad.

Cool. I was going to get 400 lol. Thanks.

Well I got them today.
Super happy. Only got 100 but these are hard to find here.
