dubias

Would my dubia roaches stay dormant around 70-73 during the day? They don't seem to be eating or drinking the water gutload but I have no die offs.... unless they hide instantly when in the light or don't scatter the gut load like crickets I never see them munching. I keep them in a plasric container and it looks like their legs get stuck to the plastic like static.. maybe they don't like this?

are you feeding the correct stuff? what are you feeding them? water water gel is good

I mine have been eating at night. I have yet to see them eat but I see their food disappear.

Water crystals seem to be good.

my understanding is they need a lot of heat to thrive i keep mine high 80s to 90 and they will eat an entire watermelon in like a week. And breed like crazy, i use one of those ceramic heat bulbs to keep their temps up. those heat mats do next to nothing.
Up their temps you will see a lot more action
