Keith Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 I only thought Dubia mate once and that's it. I am doing selective breeding and I had this male and female together to mate. I caught them mating and they were copulating for over an hour and after seperation the female was fatter and the male thinner. A week later I caught the same pair mating again for full length of time! Either this male had a low sperm count, or Dubias can mate at least twice, giving the opportunity for 2 different fathers to the offspring.
