I just counted out my colony and I have 67 adult females and about 79 males and about 1500 mixed nymphs. I returned only 23 adult males to go along with the 67 adult females. I put the other adult males in a seperate tote to use as feeders. This gives me a 3 to 1 ratio of females to males...

Should the wings of the adult male Dubia be clipped before feeding the BD?

That's a 40g breeder.

Well my local petstore has them for 25 for $1.00.

I guess the difference is the 8 adult females. I have ordered from 3 different suppliers and never received 8 adult females in a 100 mixed batch. That was my main point.

I have my UTH at one end under the tote where the egg crates are placed. Put the food opposite the UTH. No, I have seen no adverse effects to the platic. It's not as hard as you think to cut the lid of the tote. I used a brand new box cutter and it worked fairly easy.

I wanted to add some diferent blood lines to my dubia colony that I purchased from theroachguy.com. So I ordered 100 mixed from http://www.buyroaches.com and when I received the order there was a 20% overcount and there were 8 adult females, 4 adult males and the rest were mixed nymphs. That was...

That is the one I have. Zoo Med Repti Thurm U.T.H. for 10-20g. This was the one that http://www.theroachguy.com suggested when I bought my starter kit from him. You should check out his site if you gonna purchase any Dubia.

It depends on the wattage of the UTH. I use a UTH with mine and it's fine. I have a 35g tote with a 10-20g UTH. I have had no problems.

No, there are some that do not have auto shutoff. You can also use a UTH.

Anyone?

THANKS..lol

I just received my T-REX UV Heat bulb does anyone know if there is a burn in period. Is it safe to put a BD immediately under the bulb?

Two of my girls are 6months and 15' right now. I will be ordering Supers. What is the rule of thumb when making the transition. They have never had them before. How many should I let them eat at first to make sure they are digesting them properly? Once I see that thay are digesting them ok does...

I agree. I have dealt with Jason(theroachguy) numerous times and he has great customer service. Shoot him a E-mail. Does it still show the package in VA?

Your right about that. I seen it arrive at my local post office before it was delivered. Did you get winter packaging with it?

You should just go directly to the source and buy from http://www.phoenixworm.com. They have free shipping. Since they all come from here anyway. I really didnt see much difference between the Mediums and Large. Large would be fine though.

I had a order shipped to me from TheRoachGuy this week also. It shipped Monday and I received it Wed at 1pm. You should have received a tracking # from PayPal.

I have mine under the egg crates uder the 33g Sterilite. Opposite the food and water crystals.
