So recently when I went into the reptile store which I normally go to and I was informed that roaches were more nutritious for the reptiles. So I went ahead and bought some and my AFT seemed to love them. I'd like to breed them since they are kind of on the expensive side. What exactly do I need?
That probably would have been pretty important information to include lol. I believe they are Dubia roaches. The ones I have don't exactly look like that, but they are close. I'm just guessing mine aren't fully grown.
Like Mike said, great choice. Easy to breed, prolific, and nutritious. Only downside is they take longer to get going that a cricket colony, for example.
Another question that would have probably been important for myself to ask. How many roaches does it take to start to get the ball rolling? And how long am I looking at until I start noticing something? I only ask because I've never bread insects before haha.
