i was told at petco on sunday (and most of the time they dont know what there talking about lol) that you need a fairly large container like a 10 gallon tank or something, a dirt like subsrate that can hold moister, and then a little dog food a water dish for them. she told me that you should have pin head crix in about 2 weeks. i havent tried it yet but im going to try it. :)

I breed crix for a while. Sometimes they breed good and other not so good. The adults sometimes all died around the same time like a mass suicide. I went with Discoid roaches instead. Lot easier to keep alive starting a colony was so much easier. They don’t stink at all like crix, they can’t climb and so much easier for Ony to catch then jumping crix...
