Roachsmith Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 How long do adult panchlora live? Mine only seem to live a few weeks, maybe a month after they've matured. Is that normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allpet Roaches Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 How long do adult panchlora live? Mine only seem to live a few weeks, maybe a month after they've matured. Is that normal? Females live up to six months males four, females really should never live less than three months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EffeCi Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 In my experience, if adults die in a short time, the environmental humidity is too low... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roachsmith Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 Thanks. I'll try raising the humidity a bit and see if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EffeCi Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Nymphs have no problems of humidity, so they grow quick and well even in a dry environment. But adults needs a relatively high humidity tax to live and reproduce. I lost my first colony of Panchlora, some years ago, keeping them too dry.

PeriplanetaAmericana Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I´m agree with EffeCi, I keep P. nivea with high levels of humidity. I lost 90% of my P. nivea colony a month ago because the humidity levels were low. Good luck with them! Best regards, Javier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntsman Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Very interesting! Are there any other species common in the hobby that are so dependant on higher humidity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Very interesting! Are there any other species common in the hobby that are so dependant on higher humidity? P. pallida seems to like things on the moist side... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
