When will she STOP laying??

Thanks for the advice, and knowledge Angie and Matt!

That's really helpful to know, and I didn't even think to worry about whether my dubia colony would be big enough.

I'll probably end up just dropping another 2 or 3 hundred $$ into my colony this week to prepare it for the breeding.. I wont be paring them till around Jan/Feb (I want to do the full 2month brum and then a full month of the heavy feeding/calcium prep) so that should be plenty of time to get large numbers of really cheap smalls and have them grow up enough to have the colony beefed up by the time eggs hatch in March or whatever, and then I can save up a few extra dollars to get a bigger incubator/more shelves and holding containers.

Thanks for the encouragement, Matt! It is a little intimidating, but I know I'll have as much fun as you have!

I had a girl I raised from hatchling, and there was never a male in my house. She laid about 120 eggs per year in 4 clutches, for about 10 years. I can't imagine what I would've done with all those babies had they been fertile!
