Roachman26 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I've just finished reading "Allpet Roaches" cover to cover. Okay, it was the tenth time... Does anyone have Deropeltis erythrocephala in culture? I found info on the D. paulinoi, but none on this one. Are they as noxious as the paulinoi? In other words, do they stink, taste bad and stain your fingers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pharma Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Hi I don't know anything about this genus (I suppose that both species are similar), but here you can find them in culture: www.schaben-spinnen.de/Content/shop.php?cat=11&start=15 Grüessli Andreas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allpet Roaches Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 They don't produce noticeable quinones but it doesn't matter since that species disappeared from US culture quite a few years ago. It's a lot bigger than D. paulinoi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a lot bigger than D. paulinoi. Bummer. I was looking forward to give it a try. Maybe I'll just have to go back to Africa and find some.
