    @Joshua_503 2 роки тому +4

    if you'd put a piece of paper or cardboard between the egg cartons then you'll have a lot neater looking colony. and investing in some cardboard trays would help keep their enclosure clean as well because you won't have all the petrified carrots and apples. and maybe consider not using apples because they stain and go bad a lot quicker than the carrots. the carrots petrify while the apples rot basically

      @@xxd5doo5xx89 dubias can climb. they just aren't as good as other roaches. the best thing you can do is if you have clear packing tape? tape like an inch below the top of the containers walls on the inside, if that makes sense. what i recommend is making sure that the plastic you're using is completely smooth and void of any scratches or caked on dirt because they will use whatever they can to get out

      You can look at the last body segment and compare its width to the segment before it. If the bottom 2 segments are wide female. If the last body segment is narrow male. Not 100 percent effective and nymphs have to be a couple colts away from adulthood for greater accuracy. Trying to sex smalls I don't believe is possible with any accuracy
