histrio Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 I'm not sure of the translation of "able". you are not sure to found some piece of histrio or if you think that you don't have enough experience with cockroach breeding.

Hisserdude Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Sorry, I mean that they are extremely rare in the USA hobby, and you can't really find them for sale anywhere here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

histrio Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 I wrote on another file "favorite roache" that: I want that this cockroach conquers the world I'm ready to do all that it's possible for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Lemur Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Capecod roaches has them listed in their upcoming projects. Definately here, just haven't started circulating a whole lot in guessing. I'm sure some folks have them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
histrio Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 sure, I found on facebook a man who live near New york who breed H histrio and H palliata. He received Histrio from Deutchland. He would find another colony from other origin for genetic diversity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are one of the prettiest roaches I've seen! How do you care for them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cariblatta lutea Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 You have a really nice collection! I'm jealous of you for having Panesthia. lol Those Hemithyrsocera are BEAUTIFUL! I'm supposedly getting some within couple of months so I'm really excited about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
histrio Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 Temperature: 25°c day, 20°c night.... substratum: mixture of sand, crushed leaves, soil, 3cm. Box: 20X30X20 for 10 adults. On the half left box,nothing else.. On the half right box: I put 7-8 cm of dry leaves and dry white rotten wood. All 3-4 days, I spray water, like a rain. just on the right of the box. The box has a good aeration and the leaves on the top become dry after one day but the 4 cm on the bottom are all the time wet. The female put the ootheque on the wet party, the adults hide on the leaves, the small nymphs prefer the dry substratum. Food: personal chow = cat food, bird food, herbivorfood, dry milk, crushed dry cake, fat for bird. cereals. fresh banana, fresh apple, fruit compote. but warning= The nymphs are very small, you must cover the top of the box with something to stop them. She passed between the box and the lid. silicone grease appears block but is not enough. I do not use mosquito nets but that: http://www.jardincou...CFaUIwwodzA0H4Q I don't know the english name, sorry. I paid 3€ for 10m² Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For panesthia: it's a shame that the import of cockroaches is complicated for you because I sell actually 10-12 nymphs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm supposedly getting some within couple of months so I'm really excited about it Ooh, good, glad they are spreading in the hobby! Yeah, I'm also jealous of the Panesthia, however those are also apparently being kept by a few hobbyists in the US, so hopefully they will be established in the hobby here as well.

histrio Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 my pleasure. They seems to be in good conditions: already 90 nymphs and 3 females with ootheque= 20-30 nymphs on each ootheque. I have 2 boxes with 10 histrio in each and it's just with one of them. In the second box, they become adult later and must begin to have babies about 2or 3 weeks... it will be a histrio invasion....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pannaking22 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Wow, that's a heck of a collection! And we could certainly use a histrio invasion here in the US! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
