Molting Discoid

[Lorgakor]

I caught one of my discoids molting and was able to snap a few pics. Hopefully they will start breeding soon now that I have several that have molted into adults.

Nice.

Do you know how offen baby nyphms molt?

 

[Lorgakor]

Sorry, I have no idea. These are my first roaches and they haven't even started breeding yet.

I think its about 7 molts over 3-5 months, temp affected of course

WOW, so they grow pretty big after each sucessful molt then? Because the baby nyphms i have (now 100+) are kinda too small to feed to my slings. How big do you think they would get after their first molt, generally speaking.
