Great pics
Always wise to dispose of the eggs as this can lay huge amounts on almost a weekly basis!
You can freeze,micro wave or crush them!
Sad really i no longer keep this species for that reason!
Now mine lay the eggs but will they hatch Sad
They are often wanted in schools mind they are great for a childs first insight to bugs Smile

lol, they are awesome. i kept them for a few generations, but eventually needed the space to try something new so dont have them any more. i quite liked them really, ate loads, grew fast, and bred fast-and a lot. interesting creatures. how big are they?
