Dubia roach question

[definitions]

Hi someone is giving me a colony of dubias. The lady said the dubias have been with no heat and food for a while. What kind of precautions do I need to take before introducing them into my colony.

u could just warm them back up and make sure they seem okay... as long as they aren't dieing or almost dead it shouldn't be an issue... i would also watch for possible mites (ive seen them on hissers). i wouldn't be to concerned with it tho

yeah I just warmed them up and fed them real good before I introduced them. I didn't want any canabalism because she said they haven't eaten in like a month. They ate a whole banana and a couple trays of roach chow. Soon as I put it in the tub they swarmed it. Thanks for the response!
