They are all eating like crazy!!! I give them a combination of about 10-20 crickets, 2-4 supers and a few dubia roaches every day! The largest male is about that size, I measured from snout to vent the other day and he was 6"+ not including his tail! I did have to separate the two larger ones...

from my best understanding the ones that can't close their wings all the way are females and the ones that can are males. I caught a few doing the deed and I noticed that the ones on top were had their wings completely closed and the others did not. Not sure if this is 100% accurate but it was...

Yeah, I occasionally had them on a heating pad that I use for the dubia's and I did see more activity from them. I was afraid it may be too hot!!

Generally, I was keeping mine in the 70-80 degree range.

Do I need to seperate the larger adults from the babies? Or can they all stay together?

sounds good, thanks. Any other pointers?

For sure, that's what I've been doing. Arizona is already hot (in the 90s) so they are definitely getting the heat. Anything particular you notice they like to eat? I tried kale, oranges, carrot, romaine, potato? Anything else??

Nice, I just had 250 large supers delivered and I will start the process again tomorrow using the biggest ones. I only started with about 20 beetles? Most look like females, probably a ratio of 14 females-6 males. How many supers would you guess I could have?

So, I got about 200 mixed nymphs to start a colony with. They ranged in size from about 1/4"-3/4" max. My question is this... I have had them for about 2-3 weeks now and I have been swapping food and what not every other day and yesterday I finally looked around at all of them to see how they...

No potato's yet. Once I noticed them I chopped up a carrot and put the pieces in.

haha for sure. I did just convince my spouse to let me try and breed dubia's and I'm hoping that will be a little easier! lol

anticipating the obsession... I bought 3 when I originally planned for 1 at the beginning!

It took a while (1.5 months) and I was about to give up today when I looked inside one of my older bins from some superworm beetles and saw these little tiny worms all over!! I was seriously ready to throw them away, cause I thought I did something wrong. Its crazy how long it took though. I...

I use fishing line/zipties to attach vines and what not and it works just fine.

Very tiny, but cute. Thanks again for the chams, I couldnt be happier and they are growing up super fast. Any plans to do some more breeding?
