B.discoidales Question

[Deschain]

I decided to start a B.discoidales colony after doing lots of research here on the benefits of roaches over crickets.

I've found lots of info on roaches, and I know that my question was answered somewhere on here, but I can't seem to find it. Here's my quick question...

What is the approx. length of time for freshly hatched babies to reach breeding age/maturity? I have them in a setup (from the sticky on roachs), in a room that varies from 88 to 95 degrees...and apparently one or two had babies already.

Thanks for any info...or the link to a proper thread if you know of it.

Between 90-120 usually. Sometime it can take longer, but keep them warm and full of food and you should be in good shape.

Roaches

If your going to be using roaches as feeders, you should try orange heads and orange spots. They both breed much faster than the discoids for me and also tend to live longer.
