Educational Roach Display at Local Expo

[lecole4]

Hi, guys, I need your help! I've agreed to do an educational display for a local reptile expo coming up on May 16th. I'm looking for some exciting roaches to show off, and if I can get hold of enough, sell as pets. Could anyone recommend some exciting species they think would work well? I have dubia and orange heads right now, but I want to at least get some hissers. Halloween hissers? Question marks? Dominos? Deaths heads? Give me your ideas!

Deaths heads are a great idea, also some sort of hisser. Maybe some horseshoe crab roaches?

Some suggestions I would make are:

Blaberus craniifer UCR

Blaberus giganteus

Blattella germanica OR Blattella asahinai

Gyna lurida yellow

Panchlora nivea

Eurycotis dicipiens

Eurycotis floridana

Gyna caffrorum

I wouldn't sell the Blattella germanica or asahinai unless it was to me .

Thanks for the great ideas so far, guys. Here is what it looks like I'll be taking:

Dubia

Red Runners

Orange heads

Madagascar Hissers

Dwarf Hissers

Dominos

Deaths Heads

RomanBuck, you really made me laugh. I know you love your roaches, but I think I'll be staying away from Blattella.
