Starting a breeding coloney and need help

I was thinking of starting a Blaptica dubia coloney and was hoping for some advice and houseing them so i dont have excapees and feeding them. The Wife is against it because they are roaches. lol thanks

Go with lobsters they are heartier IMPO and breed much quicker.


I use a (whopping!) 10 gallon tank with two undertank heaters and vaseline around the lip (the roaches wont cross it). Add about 100-200 lobster roaches... feed lots of greens, fruit, and dogfood blended with oatmeal (blend in a blender). I have literally thousands of roaches in my colony.

Couldnt be easier.

Then I use shallow stainless steal dog bowls 4 feeding. When the roaches are dusted in calcium it makes it virtually impossible for them to climb out of the SS dishes. The roaches are easy pickinz for your dragons.

enjoy

the lobsters dont have nearly as thick of an exoskeleton either which makes them easier to digest
