You need at least 5 females per male. It takes time to get it all set up and breeding etc but once you got it all right they will breed. Alot. Again it takes time for the young to grow on too. The trick is keeping the rub moist/damp enough for them (as well as warm enough etc) or the females will drop their eggsacks and they just dry out and die.

My coloney has saved me a fortune on roaches for sure. xx

Ive never tried them but been advised to as Kira is a fussy eater! All the ones available to buy are too many so wanted to start off with just a couple to see if she would eat them but at the same time they're quite expensive so would breed them if she liked them! I Need to find somewhere that will let me take a test pot first lol just two or three and see if she wants them!
