Matttoadman Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 ......like watching paint dry. I have had my pantanal since nov 4 th and several appear to the size of adults so figured at least one would have mounted by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Lemur Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I've had blaberus craniifer since late August/early September and still no adults . They're kept at 80F constantly with a varied diet. They're quite big, but still no adults. I feel your pain lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hisserdude Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Please, try having to wait 2+ years for Polyphagid nymphs to grow up! I have had my Polyphaga saussurei since February, and I reckon they still have a year or two left until they mature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matttoadman Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share Posted December 23, 2015 I can only imagine. I am hoping to use these as feeders but they going have to mature quicker than this. I thought they were around 3 months as nymphs and a year as adult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matttoadman Posted February 6, 2016 Author Share Posted February 6, 2016 For cryin out loud, still no adults. They are noticeably growing, but I have some that appear longer than the adults are suppose to get. I this rate they are not going to work as feeders. I have javanicas moulting into adults right and left. Perhaps I need to get some surinames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hisserdude Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Lol, they sure are taking their time! I do think these are more of a pet Eublaberus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
