    Well lettuce is fine to put in there, but one that is going bad I wouldn't. Will produce mold a lot faster and lose most of it's nutritional value. So, really no point.

    Threw out the lettuce. Got some fresh cut orange in there now. What do you think about my temps? The roaches seem to be avoiding my egg flats and staying on the bottom just packed on top of one another.

    Around 100 is fine in some areas towards the bottom, higher than that is unknown. I keep mine at about 90-105 towards the bottom, they mostly bunker down towards the bottom. The egg flats are their cool off area. My whole ground floor is covered with a heat mat so they can't cool off down there. If they're mostly on the bottom then that means the temps are fine down there. Keep them that way, they will choose where to go. I know ideally you should just have it 90-95 throughout for optimal breeding, so just try to achieve that and you'll be good.

    Alright yeah that makes sense. I hooked the other heater back up. The entire bottom is basically covered with the bottom UTH so that's where they want to be. I keep checking on them which is insane, I need to just let them be haha.

    Yeah I do the same thing... Spent good money on these guys and want to make sure I get the most production out of them before they die... Seems kind of harsh, lol.

    Copied the idea from a link that somebody posted on a previous thread of mine. Hopefully I get some breeding soon!
