they get decently sized, but not huge. They do not fly unless you buy from Pat longs stock. The Nymphs look like giant Roley Polly's to me. Not climbing is my biggest reason why I like them because then I can just stick them into a cup for the beardies to eat.
LOL oh Matt.......

Males have wings, females dont, the females are shiny looking. No dubia can not climb smooth surface's. They do best in hot humid climate about 90F with 50+ humidity but they can live in 70F weather just fine just breed slower.

I'm so sad that roaches are banned in Ontario. I would keep a coloney or two as crickets are expensive and loud.

Re: New Pets
Just because they are banned doesnt mean you cant find someone with them.

Hi,
But it does mean you cannot talk about it, advocate it, or otherwise flout the law on this site.
