As long as you have a handfull of males in the colony you don't need to care about them. They're doing a pretty good job even on a few houndred females.

I would suggest you use a whider variety of fruits. Everything that is sweet or neutral to the taste can be used. Orange, over ripe kiwi (they LOVE IT), carrots, you name it. I do what you do, plus what I mentioned now and the box is nearly brimming over

Mine don't like kiwi, banana, carrots. They love peach, grapes, apples (mine only staple source of water for them). Oranges eat without apetite.

I guess it also depends a lot on what different things you give them at the time. If you give them potatoes and apples, they're gonna leave the potatoes and only eat the apples. They're picky when they have the choice.
