You may wish to use a heat pad or heat lamp in order to provide them with warmth. /-/-/ (Housing Humidity)We recommend keeping hissing cockroaches at 50%+ humidity if at all possible. Red Runner Cockroaches will survive at lower room humidity, but will thrive in the 60-70% humidity range. Keep the coconut fiber bedding damp, and mist frequently. /-/-/ (Feeding) Keep a small food and water bowl in their home. We recommend using any dry roach feed along with adding in some fresh fruit and vegetables, such as Bananas (whole), Carrots, Lettuce, Oak leaves, Oatmeal, Orange slices, Pearl barley, Potato, Peaches, Plums & should be offered a few times a week. /-/-/ (Enclosure) Red Runner Roaches should be housed in a smaller enclosure. They seem to breed best when kept slightly crowded & also keeps them in close proximity with their food and water. I use egg cartons for media; however using a substrate can be beneficial as well. I like to keep the back half of the tank on the heat mat. I will mist the tank or dump water into the back half were it will naturally evaporate andprovide humidity. /-/-/ 100% LIVE ARRIVAL GUARANTEE (or will refund/re-ship)
