Hello all,
I've been a herper for many years but never tried to breed any feeders until now.
Here's my issue: bought approximately 150 discoid from a local breeder here about 3 months ago... I set up Temps in the mid 80s low 90s, egg flats, water crystals and home made roach chow.
I was advised that the roaches with the long wings are males, also denoted by the small last section of the abdomen and females are wider and have a larger last section of the abdomen... They're eating and molting fine, but it seems even the ones that looked like females are molting into males?
Maybe I read something wrong and have been sexing them wrong?
Any help?
