I am a new Dubia Colony owner, just got a 180 starter kit from The Roach Guy late last month (Thank You Jason). I also got a 150 mixed and 5 adult pairs from Arron Pauling (Thank You) a couple weeks later to get the Colony really going. I went with a 29 gallon Aquarium covered with foil, it is working great.
I have fed my little gal a couple roaches and it has been kind of a pain in the butt to get those couple smaller roaches. I open the lid and there are not very many out and the ones that are out run and hide in the roach motel. I'm not to sure if picking up the Roach Motel would be disturbing enough for the Queens for them to drop their eggs of not.
So my question to you Colony owners . . . How do you quickly "Harvest" the right sized roaches? are there any tricks?
