HOw many roaches did you get again? I would say your off to a good start, as long as you kick up the size of the cage to a 22 - 40 gallon tank. I would suggest a rubbermaid tote. THey are opaque, so noone will get wierded out by them, and they are cheap. You will need more egg flats, try to cover half the cage with them. you want as many "territories" for the males as you can get, so the females are turned on. I am not big on flyin roaches, and im not sure if those guys are climbers. If they are, the top on a tote wont keep them in. THey are escape artists. vasoline will keep them in, but youll still ned the top since they are flyers.
Other than that, you should be set. I recomend no water dish because babies will drown. Applesause works great as a moisture source, and they really like it. also, just plain apples and melons work well. Cat/dog food for protein, because fishfood is just too expensive to feed them. They LOVE fishfood thou.
