Roaches are so freakin easy it should be illegal.

Feed em - fruits, veggies, cat food, whatever
Water em - crystals work best
Heat em - I haven't set up any sorta heat in my lobster roach bin, there are babies everywhere. Dubias might need it.

That's it. Once they get established, you get unlimited feeders.

What about humidity? I have done a bottle for humidity but now I am noticing that the corners of the box is wet. Should I remove maybe there is excessive humidity?

 

[BadKelpie]

I think the water crystals provide the humidity. Might be wrong here.

I do not use any crystals my self I use oranges and a bottle of water but I think I could remove the bottle right because with the oranges I can make enough humidity. Anyone could point that out please?

Different people have different methods. I just keep a dish of water crystals and dry food in with them at all times and they moult fine. The humidity in my gecko room is between 30-40%. In my experience they don't need that much humidity.
