dEsSiCaTa_UK Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I brought a tub of these a couple of days ago which arrived the very next day I've wanted these roaches for some time now and when i brought a tub i was expecting like 6 or 8 nymphs, so i got a tub with 60 or 80 nymphs and adults alike They were even more amazing in real life however they run real fast, climb plastic, and fly...well :| Needless to say i need to drastically cut the number down a lot On their own however they are very nice roachs, real nice shades of colour on them aswell ad the amazing patterns on the nymphs and the nicely shaped wings on them Im really impressed with this species Adult female Adult male Young nymph Adult female Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BugmanPrice Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 They are a really nice species. The yellow recessive are really neat but I think just the normal guys are quite beautiful too; they’re so variable in coloration! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt K Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I brought a tub of these ... They are a really neat little roach that I would consider an important addition to any collection. Your photos are also very very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dEsSiCaTa_UK Posted November 23, 2009 Author Share Posted November 23, 2009 Thanks Well i havent got a yellow but i think ive got the next best thing, this female shocked me when her colour developed, never seen or heard of this morph before The colours really like that in real life, maybe better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are associated with the yellow form somehow. That being the case, I would think Orin has those too. A great while back I may have psoted in the photo section a few of my yellows and maybe a rainbow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Ah, what a great roach. I looked in my colony and seem to have a mix of some awkward reds, rainbows, "true" porcelains, and a few other colors. Just plain cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dEsSiCaTa_UK Posted November 30, 2009 Author Share Posted November 30, 2009 I did see a male with a very slight purple tinge around the edges of his wings I might seperate them and see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
