Discoid lifespan

Keith

Megaloblatta
2 1/2 years ago I happen to get a starving discoid nymph in a batch of dubia. I kept it and it grew up living with the dubia and was a male. Besides 6 month growing period they say they live for a year, mine ended up living 2 years as an adult and being male which normally live shorter than females that's a long time! He died of old age just stopped eating suddenly and died few days later.

 
He got slower and wings tore up a little from burrowing and natural wear, but that's it.
