B dubia...molting into males

[Gesticulator]

My B dubia colony is starting to flourish. And I am learning as I go along. I am using a small heat pad during the day and a purple bulb at night. Noticed the third batch of nymphs yesterday. I also see what looks like a freshly molted male, as it has wings and the shed skin is that of a larger nymph. Once a male "matures", which I am assuming is evidenced by the wings, will it continue to molt? or is this the final phase before it dies?

Thats the final moult and it will die within a few months. Females can live quite a lot longer than males, but I have no numbers on either of them really.
