I just got in 100 B. Dubia and I'm trying to raise the temp up so they can reproduce I'm using red heat lamp right now and I was wondering if red light is safe for them?
I don't see why not... I don't even heat mine though. Just be careful you don't cook them. Depending on the red light you are using, I know some are designed to create a basking area for lizards. That would be way too hot.
I use a 75 watt IR and a 4watt heat mat on the bottom.
They're in the garage so its pretty cold. Keeps them about 80F tops during this winter. In the summer much hotter so you don't have to use one or just a much smaller wattage bulb.
