Yeah, we're seeing some really awesome species entered culture lately for sure! If only there were a bit more people in the hobby here, and more interest in some of the less flashy species as well.

A beautiful species of small Blaberid with metallic green adults. 😍 I did not find them too difficult to rear, fingers crossed they'll breed well for me! Female: Males: Females are unbelievably vibrant in coloration, they look oversaturated in real life. 😍 Males are quite a bit darker but still super pretty.

No, a male from a different breeder. -
Euthyrrhapha pacifica (Pacific Cockroach)
Hisserdude replied to Hisserdude's topic in Cockroach Photo Gallery
Not sure if they're mimicking any specific type of beetle, but their appearance is very beetle-like. Could just be coincidence though. -

Eucorydia westwoodi (Heart Flower Roach)

Bit of a late update, but was very successful in breeding these BTW, and already onto the next generation. Adult female: Males & females: -
Euthyrrhapha pacifica (Pacific Cockroach)
Hisserdude replied to Hisserdude's topic in Cockroach Photo Gallery
Adult female: Ootheca. Note the exit hole on the last picture, the oothecae of this species do not have an exit seam as is typical of roach ooths. Instead the nymphs chew their way out of their oothecae! -
Euthyrrhapha pacifica (Pacific Cockroach)

Adults can climb pretty well, though they usually dive into the substrate when startled. -
Euthyrrhapha pacifica (Pacific Cockroach)
Hisserdude replied to Hisserdude's topic in Cockroach Photo Gallery
Very easily, care is similar to other Corydiids, two third of substrate kept dry, the rest humid. Lots of ventilation, dog food and leaf litter diet, and they're good to go. Doesn't get a whole lot easier. -
Glad to see you back! Lots of diversity in the hobby atm, I will say from personal experience the white eyed Eupolyphaga are pretty dang cool. Pet dirt like most Corydiids, but a very cool strain of a relatively easy to breed hobby classic.

Hormetica sexnota & Hormetica laevigata in culture?
Hisserdude replied to mason's topic in General Blattodea Discussions
H.laevigata may be in culture in Russia, and I think I have seen some Brazilian hobbyists keep them as well. I've never seen H.sexnotata enter culture though, and I doubt either species will enter US culture in the very near future.- 1 reply

Hormetica Strumosa Breeding Issues
Hisserdude replied to mason's topic in General Blattodea Discussions
Actually H.strumosa is the one Luci/Hormetica I know of that's bred just fine after being shipped as adults. I mean, the others might too, I just know of several people (myself included) who had terrible luck receiving Lucihormetica spp. as adults.- 2 replies

Either increasing the space, humidity, or protein in their diet should help.

Can all members of Therea interbreed?
Hisserdude replied to aoikirin's topic in General Blattodea Discussions
Unfortunately it seems pretty clear they can hybridize in captivity, and I've since become aware of at least one person who had this happen... so yeah, gotta be careful who you buy from, and in maintaining proper containment procedures. -
Heterometrus silenus morph???

Wow, that's really neat! -
Euthyrrhapha pacifica (Pacific Cockroach)
Hisserdude replied to Hisserdude's topic in Cockroach Photo Gallery
Got my first adult, and wow they're tiny, half the size of Eucorydia yasumatsui. But super pretty still. -
So excited to have found this space!
