I'm curious how many babies are pop out when a female dubia gives birth. I've looked every where and can't find it. Hopefully you guys can help me out.

Thanks,
Ryan

I would say roughly 30 at a time, sometimes more sometimes less. All I know is they are EVERYWHERE once they do start breeding!

Hope this information helps

You're probably confusing the ootheca (egg case) with giving birth. Female Dubia roaches ARE live bearers, however they first produce the long narrow egg case, then retract it back into their bodies for incubation. During this time, if they are disturbed or stressed they may abandon the egg case.

Hope this information helps!
