Ihaggerty1313 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I need all you roach experts to help me out here. Seems that this is up for debate. Just WHAT IS the proper male to female ratio when keeping dubia? I've heard 1/3 all the way up to 1/10. Thanks, -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allpet Roaches Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Hi Ian, I'm guessing your question is the minimum number of males? One male can keep quite a few females fertile, possibly in the hundreds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ihaggerty1313 Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 I keep one male per 10 females. Excellent! Then that's a good thing! I'll have to thin them out cuz I was keeping a 3/1 ratio. Not a problem w/ hungry Beardies around though! -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
