I need another brain..

[Mace]

Hey guys I need help? I’m sick and have no brain right now.
I got my 100 dubias in yesterday and placed them in their bin fed them; ya know the norm.
Fast forward to this morning I look nothing been eaten.. okay whatevs... more hours pass and I look again and actually look in there and the majority of them fell in the little sides of the bin. I then realize hey dummy they can’t crawl up there hints as to why they’ve not eaten..duh.. so I’ve been messing around in there for half an hour trying to find a way to A get them out of the little cracks and B how to make something that fits the width of those little cracks to fill them in so no more dubias get stuck. Like title says I have no brain right now and need to pick other peoples brains for a better idea lol. The pic included is just one corner but that’s like in every corner with them poor things.

You could put some substrate in, like a thin layer of coco fiber, that'll help them move around. Then just use tongs to grab em out when you need em.

Thank you!!
Should I put a thin layer in the entire bin or just those little cracks?

They like to be warm as well. If they are not warm then they will not eat. @jamest0o0 is the bug lord and can give you some feedback.

Yes we summon you ol Bug Lord, @jamest0o0 descend upon us with your knowledge!

 

[Mace]

Lol seriously though! Some of us crave for your bug knowledge! I was going to start a dubia colony and realized I need a lot more dubias to accomplish that.

 

[jamest0o0]

Yup I agree with adding some substrate and warming them up a bit

The easiest think will be to scratch it with some sand paper, and they will be moving in and out freely.
