Spread.Out.Paradise Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Just a fun hypothetical question! For me, it would be snails and slugs, aquatic inverts of any sort, flies, wasps, cicadas, moths, and katydids. Oh and more roaches of course ...A girl can dream.

Hisserdude Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 More harvestmen, click beetles, exotic darkling beetles and camel crickets would be nice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenB Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 More Periplaneta japonica. A roach that doesn't mind the cold seems very... housable right now. More brightly coloured roaches. Basically any photo in For The Love Of Cockroaches with 'Australia' or 'Singapore' in the caption. (Australian imports, a boy can dream) More Grammostola iheringi tarantulas. Which is why I just ordered a juvie male... 😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tennyson Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Eurycotis improcera(my current favorite roach) as well as Mardi gras roaches. Forget their scientific name but they are so colorful. Also more hemithyrsocera species and just small/tiny roaches in general. Also I’ve always loved tiger and longhorn beetles but not a lot are being breed in the US at least 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allpet Roaches Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I remember when it took me a decade to assemble five roach species and longer to find Blaberus giganteus. There is so much great stuff out there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wolven Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 I wish Gryllodes sigillatus was more available in the mantis hobby but also the reptile/invertebrate hobby in general. They're higher in protein and do not carry the bacteria that kills mantises. Although some mantis species are sensitive to them and can die from them, many species eat them just fine. They'd be better for reptiles and other invertebrates too that eat them. I don't keep crickets myself but it would be nice of they were more common.
