Michael Johnson Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I have around 200 nymphs of varying sizes and around 20 adult breeding pairs. From what I've read its a 50/50 toss up on weather the adults should be separated from the non-breeding age roaches. What do you guys think? These are Blaptica Dubias by the way.. thanks ahead of time ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Johnson Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 I see no need for it... I didn't really think so either, especially if you want the colony to sustain iteslf; the breeders need to be able to replace the losses until I'm basically up to my eyeballs in these guys. Once I hit a point that there too many for one enclosure I can take a good amount out and then place them into another container and start a second small colony. Then feed off each one in an alternating fashion. Plus what's going to happen when the adults have offspring? Am I going to be scooping out babes and placing them in the other setup constantly? I guess I answered my own question but your thoughts area always appreciated.. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
