Message: <blockquote data-quote="Hisserdude" data-source="post: 69961" data-attributes="member: 4652">In my experience, most roaches don't seem to outgrow their enclosures. I keep almost all my roaches in 128 fl oz containers, and I only have three species in larger containers, (my Rhabdoblatta are in a 24 qt bin, and my hissers and horseshoe crabs roaches are in containers less than half that size). A few of my species may need ro be re-housed as the start breeding, like my Blaberus species, but most of my roaches have been content with the medium sized containers I use for them. I keep my surinam roaches in one of the medium sized containers, there are probably well over a hundred roaches crawling around in there, and there does not seem to be any signs of overcrowding.And I just realized, this is in the tarantula forum! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
