Ordering Dubai roaches, suggestions

[Kedro5]

I am looking into ordering a Dubai colony because i want to stop using crickets, they smell, annoy me, and seem to piss off Mushu during feeding. I've looked at a couple websites that offer start-up kits for a Dubai colony and am open to suggestions with where's good to order them from. Mushu is about 16ish inches and only 6 months old so he is still eating alot and i've read alot about how much better Dubai are than crickets. Along with where i should order them, just curious as to how many everyone thinks i should order to make it cost efficient and how many mature adults i should get if i'm trying to start a colony.

Any input helps, myself as well as Mushu are anxiously waiting to start using Dubai as the staple food.

Thanks alot

I honestly had no idea there was a Fore Sale area in this discussion forum. Thanks for making me aware of that haha. I'll definitely be looking on there becasue when i just checked it seemes like there is alot of people selling Dubai and for a much cheaper price than all the websites i found.

Thanks Alot

I just got my started colony today from Debbie. I told her I wanted a total of 80 females and 20 males. so I ordered the medium starter kit(30 female, 10 males, 45 large nymphs, 150 small nymphs) + 3 x 13 females which qualified me for a bonus of an extra 10 pair of adults.

so if there were 0 over count (which I'm sure there WAS over count) I ended up with 79 females, 20 males, 45 large nymphs, and 150 small nymphs. I got water crystals, chow, a clear plastic bin(which I feel is too small for this many adults) and the poweraid bottles she packages the roaches in doubles as the "4 surprise feeding dishes" because they cut slots in the bottom and tape the over when shipping.

I'm pretty happy, I know you can get them cheaper by some of the posters here when they want to thin out their colonies, but you have to wait for someone to post and hope they don't run out before you see their post in the for sale forum. I think she's pretty much inline with a lot of the other popular roach sites as far as price.
