LLL is expensive as compared to others out there. I'm in the office and don't have where I got mine from handy, but I can post the info later if nobody does it first. I picked the cheapest place after quite a bit of research. I picked up a Mix.
I keep mine between 95-110 degrees. The hotter it gets the faster they breed. I don't worry about humidity as the scrap food I add creates enough. Whatever I'm doing seems to be working.
I did take a while for the colony to blossom, I started it last Dec. and was using them in March. I feed him 40-60 a week and don't seem to be running out.
At one point I split the colony into 2, 10 gallon aquariums. Each tank was a bustling little group. I regoined them about a month ago. IMO they do better in the smaller tanks.
