    they're fast and they stink a bit i hear, but i think they breed quickly, but not like dubia, they lay casings i believe. my 2 cents on those.

    and thanks. i got another quart deli-cup from work tonight. don't know how i'm going to vent the box they're being shipped in... i miss them already and they're not even gone yet.

    Keep the box sealed or else it will get cold in the box. They will do fine as long as the container you put them in has vents.

    thanks. i was just thinking that postal workers would be freaked about holes in a box labeled "live insects"... but i guess it depends where they're headed and the weather. initial sale of my colony fell through (my fault, refund issued), so i put them up for sale again. i hope the new buyer is more local to me.

    Just my dubia colony, of which i know you don't need more of. When I counted them out, realized I had more than I thought, so bumped up the price to $55. but ebay lets people submit offers. Initially, I sold them for $45 with free shipping, but looking at other people's prices, I saw that was quite low and since they're young and 9 are sub-adults almost ready for their final molt, I put them back up for sale for more money. Don't want to get rid of them at all, but I can always get more down the road if so inclined. Picking them up, looking at their little faces, I knew I was going to miss them. oh my god i'm deranged.
