I am moving out of the my parents house and into my own place in July and I was thinking about raising Dubia Roaches as a sustainable food source for my dragon. I have never looked into roaches because my parents wont allow them in the house and Obie has taken to freeze dried diets and superworms. What do I need to do to set up a roach colony? I don't want some gigantic tub taking up a bunch of space in my apartment.
I just started a roach colony, and they don't take up much room in our tiny home. Right now they're in a big Sterilite tote (maybe about 18 gallons), but as the colony expands, I plan to get second tote. If you have a closet that they would fit in, that would be an ideal place for them.
Go to http://www.theroachguy.com and check out his site. He has loads of info on dubia, great pics of his set up and will sell you what you need when the time comes.
Is there ANY way you could set it up now? Maybe at a friends house or garage or shed? If you set it up now, it would easily be ready to feed out of by July.
