how old do they get before they breed?
Depending on the species they can breed at around three months old. There are other factors that can affect how often they breed.

Everything ;) they'll eat flake food, veggies, meat. They're great garbage collectors for any aquarium, so long as they're not housed with fish species that will eat them.

Many fish/pet shops sell dwarf crayfish as feeders (cheap). If you don't have any near you, check aquabid or the the dealers section of this forum. Many people sell dwarf crayfish online.

Call some bait shops if your LFS don't have them. I've seen cajun dwarf crayfish sold as feeder/bait.
Unfortunately there aren't many sold here where I live. A few stores get feeders in once in a while, but I usually buy the 'mystery' species from them. I've been able to get some rather nice crayfish for less than $5.00. :) But it doesn't happen often.
