Roaches

[Kevin1]

Well on the cool end they're at about 82.
The warm end Slightly below 90.
Also, since I bought them I've seen 2 dropped ootheca(s?) so far.

They usually drop the egg cases when they're disturbed. If you're seeing egg cases, that means they're breeding. How many did you start with? How are you heating them by the way? I need a cost effective and cheap way to heat my dubias now that I've moved.

[Kevin1]

I started with 95 large nymphs plus 3 adult pairs.
I use a zoo med under tank heater. I keep it inside the bin instead of on the bottom. The heater itself can reach 110.
So far no deaths, but no nymphs either. I can admit I was checking on them a bit more than I should of.

[John]

How many adult females do you have now? If you only still have the 3 adult females then you've ruined 2/3 of the breeding attempts and you'll have to wait at least a few weeks for them to have another go. Which Zoo med heater do you use exactly?

[Kevin1]

I think there are over 20 female's in there. 5-7 males.
I use the smallest one, I believe its the one recommended for 10 gallons.

[John]

How do you mount it and stop the plastic of the container melting?

[Kevin1]

I put the sticky side on the floor of the bin.
So far The heater hasn't gotten hot enough to melt the bin.
