pedro92 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 My blaptica dubia seem to be not eating i have the egg cartons on one side and then on the other side i have romain lettuce and some dog food/ dry mix. I do not want them to kill each other because they cant find food. how do i fix this. I think i found about 3-5 dead this week. Does anyone have any tricks on setting up a roach colony.

Matt K Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 If you would post a pic of what you have set up, it would be really easy for some of us to see what the problem might be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I would try some bananas also, they are strong smelling and should get the attention of your roaches, and they are soft to eat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Hmm... From what I've heard from various people, B. dubia either do REALLY well and multiply quickly and en masse, or they don't eat and whither away. Perhaps you should adjust the temps: try lower first, then try higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
