    Good they're breeding. Hard to believe about 30 babies can come out of that tiny thing.

    The babies are very tiny... the oothecae usually tend to be more elongate than what you have pictured but I think what you are holding probably is an egg case.

    I'm not sure. Keep it around and see what happens! The good news is more ooths are sure to follow, so you will have your babies soon enough even if it doesn't hatch out.

    I used a blender and made a mix of oranges, romain lettuce and bread. It was the most disgusting thing ever. What else could I add to help the roaches breed and give them more nutrients?
