Cariblatta lutea Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 Cool! Not very many people have these, do they? I think Orin and I are the only people who have them right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pannaking22 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Man, I've regretted not picking those up when I saw someone selling them at a local expo. I hope you get lots of nymphs from them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cariblatta lutea Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 Awesome! I hope they breed for you! Thanks man Seems that most of the people I've talked to had their adults die without reproducing so I'm hoping this won't happen to me!

I hope you get lots of nymphs from them! Really? How long ago was it? I wonder who it was since nobody other than Orin seem to be successfully breeding this species these days...

pannaking22 Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Really? How long ago was it? I wonder who it was since nobody other than Orin seem to be successfully breeding this species these days... It was over a year ago. Random guy at an expo in Chicago who was also selling a few scorps and centipedes as well. He had adults going for $4 each. He said he didn't have any luck getting nymphs and these were his last few adults, so he wanted to give someone else the chance to have success.

Ah...so he wasn't able to breed them either. Seems that most of the people who received this species were unable to get the adults to breed for some reason. Makes me wonder if the adults require some special care for them to induce the breeding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allpet Roaches Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 In my experience this species requirements are less than the average egg layer. A few pieces of dog food is all they ever need. Richie used to tell me they were the easiest thing he kept (of this type of roach) and didn't know what to do with them all. Now they're like the fifth element.

Cariblatta lutea Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 Now they're like the fifth element. Best quote of the year! LOL Sounds like this is about as easy to breed as Periplanetas. I wonder why others have failed miserably at breeding them, a great mystery to remain I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinese insect fans Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Look like periplanetas. Are they belong to Blattidae family as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
