stacywhite1975 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 hi guys I'm Stacy I live in Chicago in a part called Rogers Park. I am real time new to this forum and I'm hoping and praying that posting on this site will be a quick and easy solution to a somewhat stressful issue that I've been trying to resolve for months. But anywho- I have a ridiculous amount of Madagascar hissing cockroaches dubias and Halloween hissers that I am giving away for free because I am unable to care for them anymore I have tried but on top of all the other animals that I have to take care of and the medical and health issues that I'm facing I just no longer have the capability or resources to give them the proper care. I have separated males from females because there has just been an explosion of offspring across the board of the species so if anyone could take some or all they are established they're very friendly because I was handling them they were being treated as pets. It's just become so overwhelming for me I have quite a bit of other pets to take care of like jumping spiders and many other exotics and it's just gotten out of control. They would be completely free, you would just have to pay for shipping if you weren't local and couldn't pick them up. Spread the word too. I appreciate your consideration.

kadupul Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Welcome Stacy! There's a classifieds section on the forum you could try posting on for more views. If you can't find anyone on there either, you can try to sell on Ebay or MorphMarket. As a last resort, you might reach out to local reptile keepers.

Hi Stacy I hope you are ok. I can take them if you can ship them. I'm home all of the time and already have colonies. I have 10+ acres so if needed can spread out some when needed. I garden, compost, and do other homesteading stuff. Shipping isn't difficult and I will cover the cost. Hadupul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stacywhite1975 Posted September 8, 2022 Author Share Posted September 8, 2022 Yes!! I can ship them to you! This is wonderful news that I needed today. Thank you! What's your address? I will find out how much the shipping will be with UPS and let you know. It would probably be easier and more efficient to communicate via text or talk so my number is 312. 618. 0501.

I'm not 100% clear on who was interested in taking the roaches. you or if it was dogpack. Anywho I was really hoping that I would be able to have sent them out last Thursday but I didn't hear back from anyone and now I feel like I just got my hopes up for nothing.

kadupul Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Have you tried local pet shops? Even if they don't take them, they may have contacts who would like to have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
