Message: <blockquote data-quote="kormath" data-source="post: 77735" data-attributes="member: 4199"><p>rule of thumb i use is 2-3 times their DLS (diaganol leg span) for the enclosure.  gives them space to grow and is still small enough they can find their prey.  I do that with the width of the enclosure when upgrading from the square amac boxes like that one in your pic to a KK or something similar.  Length is going to be quite a bit more than the 2-3 times DLS, so i use a makeup brush to chase the roaches back near the T if they get away in that case.</p></blockquote><p></p>
