Breeding notes
Sample description – to be replaced with your own text.
This is my main feeder species. It cannot climb glass or plastic, does not fly and is quiet, so it works well even in a flat. It breeds best above 28 °C. Below 24 °C development slows down noticeably.
I give vegetables every 2–3 days and dry food is always available. Leftovers are removed before they go mouldy.
