Twilightroach Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 I have been wondering, there must be an easier way to get roaches out of a container to feed them then I have been using. I have my turkistan roaches in a large plastic container with egg crates (stacked vertically) and coconut fiber, and I have been using a small vial to try and get/scoop small roaches out to feed but it doesn't work very well. There must be a better and easier way to do it. Does anyone have suggestions? How do you easily get your roaches out to feed them? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyvie Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 I keep egg crate pieces, too, but I also have a bunch of toilet paper rolls in there. I'll grab one of the rolls and shake it into a container. I'll feed my insectivores from the roaches in that container (tongs usually). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matttoadman Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 I agree. Paper towel or toilet paper roll. That's what I did when I used lobster roaches. Alot will run out when you remove it but usually enough left to feed from. With my hissers a have plastic plants (they are in a display tank). The nymphs hide is them. Just a quick shake into a cup and I'm ready to roll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilightroach Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Thanks for all the advice. I have toilet paper tubes in there for them. Which works nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
