[QUOTE="NickAVD, post: 2021932, member: 117461"] When I started breeding dubias, I read about recommendations from one of the local roach sellers. They did research to maximize the productivity of the colony. There must be more females than males, otherwise the males start fighting forgetting about the females. Here's what they said about ratio: In our experience, the ideal female to male ratio for breeding is between 3:1 and 7:1. Below 3:1 males become overly aggressive. When this happens, high stress suppresses mating activity in the colony. This leads to performance degradation. Performance also drops after 7:1, but we don't know why. We suspect that some measure of "good stress" motivates mating, but this is just a guess. [/QUOTE]
