Hello i'm Robbert van Til, 25 years, living in Hummelo in the east of the Netherlands and i am a flower artist. In 2009/2010 i have workt in the tropical butterfly garden of the Amsterdam zoo and they surprised me with 8 diverend species of walking stickinsects if i just wanted the Peruphasma schultii (PSG270). The stick insects were so fun and interesting that I've sold my snakes and my hobby with insects and snails have expanded. Last year i bought some B. dubia in a petshop and they where so fun to see that i bought some more roaches at a terrarium exhibition.
Now i have 17 species of roaches, 14 species of stickinsects/leafinsects, 7 species of giant snails and 6 gekko's.
Here I hope to learn a lot about keeping roaches and find out if my craniifer be real.
Regards,
Robbert
