I once bought a thousand b. lateralis and soon after they were too large to feed to my geckos. It took several months to produce the next generation and grow them to feeder size. When I got dubias, I went with an instant colony so I didn't run into the same problem. If you get a thousand similar sized dubia, you may a have a several month lag between feeder sized nymph and the first generation. So if you want a huge colony someday, get the thousand nymphs. Otherwise get the instant colony.
go with the 1000 Dubia keep the temps high in the 90's and keep water gel and the chow available 24/7 and add a fruit or veggie every other day. mine go wild for orange and apple slices. before you know it they will be producing like wild. but you can find better deals on ready to go breeder colony's if you need someones contact pm me i will be more then happy to pass on the guy i get all my stuff from.
