WASHINGTON REDSKIN1026 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 WELL IM LOOKING FOR A SMALL SOUTH AMERICAN SP FOR YOU. SMALL MOST OF THE TIME MEANS CLIMBING. IS THERE A REASON THAT YOU WANT SMALL? CAUSE THERE IS SOME LARGE SOUTH AMERICAN SP. THAT I KEEP LIKE BLABERUS PERUVIANUS OR ANY OF THE MANY BLABERUS SP. THAT ARE AWESOME!!! THEY DONT CLIMB AT ANY SIZE, THEY ARE FUN TO WATCH, AND MANY MAKE GREAT FEEDERS. MAYBE SOME ONE ELSE HAS AN IDEA FOR YOU. KEEP US POSTED ON YOUR CHOISE.

RomanBuck Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 The blaptica dubia is a medium to large roach that doesn't climb perfect breeder once they get going. They are from South America. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blattodea313 Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 I am trying to keep them in an 18x18x24 exo terra terrarium, so it would have to be a smaller species. It is okay if the adults climb because they can't get out the small slits in the sides of the opening doors (I have tried this). I thought about Ischnoptera sp. "costa rica".

WASHINGTON REDSKIN1026 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 OK JUST ASKING. EXO'S ARE AWESOME, BEST DISPLAY TANKS...! MOST OFF THE CLIMBING SP. ARE BEAUTIFUL RITE? WELL LIKE ROMAN BUCK SAID DUBIA ARE GREAT, I HAVE SOME...LET US KNOW WHAT YOU GET? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blattodea313 Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 It might be a while before I actually get the roaches. I like to plant ahead. I think either dubia or ischnoptera sp. would be fine. Thanks for the replies. I am going to acquire some of the Gyna genus before starting this terrarium.

jebbewocky Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Define "small" in inches or mm please. That'll help. Also, I wouldn't trust even non-climbers in an exo-terra or anything with front loading doors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
