    Golden cockroach?

    These pics aren't mine, they were posted on reddit. Author states they're from Vietnam. Someone posted Margattea genus. Don't supposed these pretty little guys are available in the US hobby? 😅

    Where do you buy bark, botanicals and other goods?

    Hoping to get some better ideas for where to buy stuff in bulk for reasonable prices. At the moment, mostly looking for bark (doesn't have to be cork - honestly, I'd rather it not be cork 😅 ), rot wood and leaf litter, but also would love a decent source for other things to toss in with my...

    Dairy Cow isopods available

    My Dairy Cows have exploded in population - no surprise there, right? They're at a point where I can comfortably sell some if anyone is looking. 15 for 10.00 25 for 15.00 Local pick up in north central Texas (Collin or Rockwall County) is free. I don't have permits to ship .. so I'm not sure...

    Cleanup crews?

    I decided to keep all my roaches with substrate, even the feeders. I feel they'll have a better quality of life and that's super important to me now. I'm going to attempt to go fully bioactive with some plants and cleanup crew of both isopods and springtails. I know the plants will most likely...

    Dog food brands

    Hi everyone! I'm curious about what dog food you all use for your roaches? Mine have been eating either Wellness Core Digestive Health or Blue Buffalo Senior dog for the entire time I've had them and I've experienced no significant die offs, but I recently saw something about keeping protein...

    Saltoblattella in the US hobby?

    I saw these mentioned in a thread on Reddit, and had never heard of them before! Curious if anyone keeps these in the US - or anywhere else to be honest. :)

    Curious about beetle availability for sale

    Is either the Golden Scarab Beetle or Golden Tortoise Beetle ever available for sale? I've done some searching but so far nothing is coming up except dead specimens. :/ Thankfully there are other species that I'm interested in keeping, just out of stock at this time - so if they're never...

    My experiences feeding, a continuing journey!

    Just thought I'd record how my roaches react to various foods .. I'm completely new to really focusing on keeping them for anything more than feeders 6 months experience with that has led me to appreciate how amazing these little guys and gals really are! Their main diet, which I always have...

    YouTube video got me jonesing

    First one that got me was Bugs in Cyberspace and their Giant Rhino Cockroach breeding video. Between these and Magnificent Emerald, I need to win the lottery. :love: Then ... dang it, this video got me good. (I hope linking this is allowed) Some of the ones that really got me: Mardi Gras...

    Substrates for Pycnoscelus nigra

    I want to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong for my soon to arrive roaches. :) I keep isopods and tarantulas currently, along with Dubia but I don't use substrate with them since digging out the nymphs is so difficult. For the Shadow roaches, I was going to use a blend like I do for...

    Question about Magnificent Emerald Cockroach availability in the US

    Please note this is an innocent question, I'm not trying to be argumentative I'm just a little baffled. :) When I was searching for Corydidarum magnifica for sale some sellers in the UK came up. Why are they so much more reasonably priced in the UK? One had them for £4.00 and my jaw just...

    Hello everyone!

    Brand new roach enthusiast here, but I have kept tarantulas for about 5 months now and also have springtails and isopods. I've been keeping Dubias consistently since I've had my spiders, and have really taken a liking to the little guys. I spoil them as much as I can - to the point I kind of...

    Looking for recommendations

    I'm very interested in getting some roaches, and would love some links to some of your favorite places to buy from (edit to add: I'm in the US). I'm still trying to choose exactly which species I want to start out with, so any and all vendors would be fantastic. :)
