I learned if you give lots of fruits when the tubs are still hot it makes all the egg cartons get soggy and takes like a week to dry out when on the heat.

So I just feed lots of fruits, but take the tub off the heat pad to eat. When they are done eating, I put them back on the heat.

I've never had males fly.

Same with turk roaches, except they need more humidity for their egg cases to be able to hatch.

I never thought of the drink holders!! Great idea!
In the past I used oranges for water.

I have doubled my tubs and reduced roaches per tub and now use auto waters from ghann's for crickets.

if you use a heat pad, just only heat the side the crates are on.
