[QUOTE="Oursapoil, post: 190754, member: 33266"] I have a large dubias colony, keep in mind that they are not the fastest to grow or reproduce but they are a lot more tolerant with dry conditions and won’t climb slick surfaces as most roaches do. They are also expert at no moving the second a T approaches so the trick is to crush the head (I had some dubias still being alive and moving 2 weeks after the whole head was mashed) and put them on their back (they’ll move their legs frenetically which often works to trigger the Ts). Do a research on the forum as we had not too long ago a similar thread where we all posted pictures of our colonies and exchanged advices and tips. Hope this helps, cheers. [/QUOTE]
