    TOO much ventilation in Dubia bin?

    If the water cyrstals in the dish look dry, add water to them. They are re-usable you know... Years ago I worried about humidity, I dont any more. I keep the tops off on all my colonies and only worry about the food, water and the temp (stays between 80-85)

    From experience once you get over 105 things go bad, quickly. (Air temp not surface temp)

    Help roach guys!!!

    Holy mold batman, I would get rid of it ASAP. Looks like the roach just dropped the egg sack, nothing to worry about.

    dubia question

    It could be a few different things. 1) Too many males in the enclosure 2) Not enough protein in the diet 3) Weaker males will get attacked by others

    Funky Egg Sac? *Pics*

    This is strictly my opinion. I have seen this with some of my females. I believe its the sack that actually holds the "egg sack" inside the females. My theory is they either push it out after giving birth, dropping an infertile sack or near death. I have looked into it before and never found...

    Dubia Colony Temperature

    My room is heated with a oil filled heater. It stays roughly 85-87. I never saw production improvements with temps above this.

    Gnats and other Dubia problems.

    I would suggest lowering your temps between 85-90. We clean tubs about once a month when we pull the babies out. I freeze all the eggflats to kill off any gnat eggs that have been laid inside them. I also dont recommend keeping a top on them. (it sounds like you do) Try this if its possible...

    What other Roaches do you breed?

    I would suggest lateralis as a secondary roach. I have seen males fly and the babies seem to be able to climb a bit.
