island reptiles Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 the guy had florida skunk roaches on the table also im not familiar with either species but Ive noticed the nymphs look similar to the skunk roaches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allpet Roaches Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I'm going to guess you may have gotten what you paid for (not zebras). Zebras are usually $3-5 each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
island reptiles Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 thats exactly what I told the guy when he was selling them to me they were $3-$5 each I did ask if he was sure they were zebras he said his friend knew what he was doing and they were what was listed either way really cant complain just the skunk species is not one I was planning on owning still will be fun to raise them up and start the colony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pierre72 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Yes! Each species is so different that it is fun to experience new one. I've only had 3: German; Madagascan; Blabberous Discoidus. Others I dream of having: American, Pennsylvania Wood, Green Cuban, Peppered, Giant Cave, etc. Information on where to purchase these appreciated.

island reptiles Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 http://www.roachcrossing.com/ just endless amounts of roach species he has all of those listed but im not 100% on the green cuban Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtBug Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 For anyone living in the States craigslist is a good place to try for the more common species. Teachers will often have colonies in their classrooms and decide they need to sell off some of the nymphs! I was able to get my Peppered roach nymphs that way. Mostly I see the "giant cave" and Dubia roaches on craigslist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
island reptiles Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 I spoke to the guy yesterday at another show we were vending (this time is was the owner of the roaches) we went over the ID of the roaches and he said he would make it right with that being said I understand the value of these guys and im going to sweeten things up a bit were looking to do a few trades and hes a good guy so im going to hook him up with some nice mantises I have incubating and a few various nymphs from species he doesnt have yet neostylopyga rhombifolia.blaberus giganteus and blaberus discoidlis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
