Hello, I´m very busy with the University (exams......) and I can´t read the forum as well. I had the same problem with B. craniifer: I buyed 1,000; I divided the in 5 colonies (200 each) and started to die as Zephyr described (many fruit flies.......). I´m studing Biology and I´m working in the Enthomolgy Departament of my faculty. I think there isn´t any fungus infectation or bacteria, maybe Nematodes. Now, I´m working on them and I´m analyzing my roaches with one of the "Nematode Doc. Teacher" (sorry, I don´t know how to write it). Next Monday I´ll have some results about the analysis. Best regards, Javier.

Thanks Tom, I´ll try it again. Best regards, Javier.

Welcome Tom, It´s nice, you´re from The Netherlands because I´m trying to study there for the next year (I´m from Spain and I´m studying Biology). Also, I would like to register in BCG (Blattodea Culture Group): I sent an e-mail some months ago but they never answered me (it was in summer), How did you do? Thanks! Best regards, Javier.

PeriplanetaAmericana replied to Maarten..'s topic in Cockroach Photo Gallery
Hello, That´s great Maarten! How did you keep the oothecae? Mines leave some of them and now I´m keeping the oothecae as adults. Am I doing it ok? Best regards, Javier -

Hello, There´s only one species of Oak, it´s Quercus rubur. There´re some other trees of Quercus genus, like Q. suber, Q. faginea, Q. ilex and Q. coccifera for example. Of course, this information is about Europe, but I think it´s ok for US. Best regards, Javier

B. craniifer
PeriplanetaAmericana replied to PeriplanetaAmericana's topic in Enclosures and Barriers
Hello, Thanks Orin, so I´ll put 500 B. craniifer in one cage and the other 500 roaches in another cage (both 24"x16"x16"). It´s now ok? Best regards, Javier. -
Hello, I´m going to buy 1,000 roaches and I buyed some plastic cages: 60x4x0x40 cm (24"x16"x16") with egg cartons, a little dish with some water and pot wiht dog food. I have another plastic cage (the same as first) to separate the newborns (I want them for food). Do you think the plastic cage that I buye it´s ok for 1,000 B. craniifer? Thank you very much guys! Best regards, Javier.

Hello, Zephyr, the man who sold you the roaches, did a miss identification? or maybe, he wants you to pay more for them Best regards, Javier.

wing biting Gyna lurida
PeriplanetaAmericana replied to Maarten..'s topic in General Blattodea Discussions
Hello, Maarten, male roaches also bite the others male wings because of females, food and territory. It´s a possible too. Best regards, Javier. -
Hello, Thanks Matt, I didn´t know how to write genitalia (in Spanish it´s genitalia too) . Some photos of them are going to help us Best regards, Javier.
-
Hello, Zephyr, the colour isn´t a very good key to identification: I have some light colour A. tessellata. A identification key for many roaches use the spines of the legs and something like that to difference between species. Best regars, Javier.

Hello, Does anybody have some identification key for Hissers? Their taxonomy is very confused. Best regards, Javier.

pesticides in roach food
PeriplanetaAmericana replied to tjmi2000's topic in General Blattodea Discussions
Hello, I always wash the roaches fruit. Also, I keep some tomatoes plants and orange trees and so I´m sure thay they are free of pesticides. Best regards, Javier. -
wing biting Gyna lurida
PeriplanetaAmericana replied to Maarten..'s topic in General Blattodea Discussions
Hello, Maarten, if you only give them fruits and veggies, it isn´t very well: they need protein so they will eat the wings of other roaches. Best regards, Javier. -
Roach dealers in Europe
PeriplanetaAmericana replied to Huntsman's topic in General Blattodea Discussions
Well, he has good prices for Rhino roaches for example (3 pairs 350 euros= 525 dollars) but his scorpions, as Maarten said, are quite expensive. Now, he has some Abedus sp. for sale, I love these bugs! Best regards, Javier. -
