If I buy like 15 adults how long will it take to get a good colony going? I need to figure this out before next summer when I get my tegu....Also what do they eat and do they need heat?

Thanks

Deaths head roaches are among the most sought after Blabberus Species, for use as a feeder as well as a unique pet.
The care of these wonderful roaches is tHE same as any other Blaberus species.
They require a minnimum or 80 degree temps to breed propperly, They can be fed anything from dry dog and cat food to ready made roach food.
With a minnimum of 15 roaches at ideal temperatures, and taking into consideration that you get a good ratio of males to females
I would say by this time next year with propper care you should be in the low 200's if everything works out good and they are given the propper care, maybe even 300.
Good luck
