I'm asking for any and all ideas on how to keep a couple colonies if, say, one chose to live full time in a van. Specifically how to keep correct temps with good ventilation:) I often day dream of leaving behind conventional housing. Thoughts?

Last night I had a dream that I was holding a roach with the size of the rhino but colored like the metallic green magnifica.  I just remember smiling in the dream. Anybody else had roach dreams?

I caught it yesterday trying to flip back over and helped it out. Scary! I'm thankful (Happy Thanksgiving!) it is still running around today. The substrate is only a cm or two deep. I see them getting in top of each other at times. I'm considering separating them. Thoughts?

A second great order! This is how great the packaging is. 😄 

This one's for T. olegrandjeani. There are 2 adults so far. Sometimes they follow each other walking around.
