8733K3R Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 I cleaned my red runner colony and separated out all the roaches into a new tub leaving the ootheca behind to hatch, Its over an inch deep of just ootheca and another inch of frass. How long should I leave them to hatch before I separate the nymphs from the frass and throw it away? TLDR: how long for ootheca to hatch? I've seen everything from a week or two to 6 weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8733K3R Posted May 7, 2023 Author Share Posted May 7, 2023 For anyone curious, the answer is 2 months at 80 degrees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allpet Roaches Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 Good info. They'd probably take a few days longer at 75F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
