  1. I keep the substrate slightly moist but with ventilation so they get all the moisture from surroundings leaves are optional but I eventually quit giving leaves to them
  2. Yep Makes them quite attractive doesn't it?
  3. The one without red coloration is probably another species, Microtomus luctuosus. They look nearly identical to purcis but lack the red coloration on their femur. Interestingly they seem to be able to hybridize together cause a friend of mine found several specimens in his area that looked like a mix between purcis and luctuosus, and he finds both species in that area. I keep my adults communally with a piece of egg flat. They aren't entirely communal but adults get along fine with each other as long as they are well fed
  4. 3rd generation produced some oddities; two melanistic males! Here's a pic of one For some reason its offsprings took around 6+ months to hatch.
  5. Didn't realize I missed this comment. Sorry about that. Those should be molt since I move all my adults into bigger enclosure for pairing once they mature
  6. He had some tragic events this year so it'll take some time for him to get back into business.
  7. Now you just need to add Periplaneta japonica in your collection to finish off the US based Periplaneta
  8. No, but I can stage a shipment full of Periplaneta to your house
  9. Here's a beautiful beetle from west TX. Specimens in the pics have all deceased now, but I have ~30 L3 larvae in hand.
  10. Looks like I need to send some Periplaneta to your house on the next shipment. lol
  11. Could you possibly try keeping 1 or 2 ooths dry for about 2 months then hydrate them to see if they'll hatch that way?
  12. Hopefully I'll be able to get them available this summer!
  13. You should get some Periplaneta brunnea! They are pretty and aren't likely to infest your house as much as other Periplanetas!
  14. This particular variety can be found in Ocala National Forest, FL
  15. I used to give mine oak. I no longer give any wood to them since they don't seem to need it
  16. One of our native pill millipedes. Turns out this genus is widespread across AL (and few other southeastern states).
  17. They are doing fine. Several of them molted so far, but I don't see any signs of babies yet. I tried sexing bigger ones and it appears that all of them might be same sex
  18. These were found in cliffs located in dry desert Thanks
  19. Hmmm....in that case I'll make one last guess that will contain multiple species Macropanesthia spuritegmina Macropanesthia kraussiana Geoscapheus woodwardi
