What is worse than dropping a full box of crickets?
Spilling a box of 400+ lobster roaches on your kitchen floor!
At least you can open the windows and release the flies. Can't do that with roaches. I think I've got you beat on this one LoL
In response to your question I have added a new "House Fly" section to my feeder site listing. I have two sites listed so far but we have been adding new feeder sites daily.

As per your request, Fruit Flies are now listed.
on the topic of having a "other" section for "rare" feeders. Could you give me an example? What would you consider to be a rare feeder?
P.S. Thanks go out to Will Hayward from this forum for contributing to the listings!
I just recently started a bulletin board called the "Feeder Finder", It's far from complete but it's being updated daily. It was created in the hopes of helping people find reliable online feeder sites. You can review the sites listed with a good or bad review if you have experience with them...
The point is, they are trying to sell a product that is artificialy dyed to unsuspecting customers in the pet trade.
- YES, it's just a sales gimmick!
Some animals are attracted to brighter colors and I think this would be their only selling point if you were to call them on it. In my opinion...
Places that sell maggots for food often provide little to no information on purpose. The word maggot doesn't make for a lot of sales so they don't really want to say in plain english what they are. Also I'm sure www.Insectsusa.com would rather not advertise to reptile owners that they feed their...
Every place that sells them gets them from the same place. Here is the website of the "manufacturer" for lack of a better term. I have looked into being a distributor for them myself.

It wasn't a question of who has good products, as the person said "shipping roaches to FL is illegal." Last I knew blaberus.com didn't ship roaches there either. The fines are heavy if a person was to get cought doing it and I would be shocked if James at blaberus.com would do it since he is one...
LMAO, I was thinking it before I read it. I think the point that was made here was... that so many of us have been told at some point that "this is is the way it's done, and this is the only way it's done". Everything about pet keeping in general is flexible to a point. I can't even begin to...
I'm a retailer and I used to sell the habba mist from zoo med. It was one of my biggest selling products when I did sell it. Although I haven't used it myself I was just looking for some input as to why it is a piece of _____ (fill in blank as you please)? Did it not work at all? or did it just...
OK, to be completely honest I don't have that much experience with chams; but if they are under the proper uvb lighting wouldn't that be the same as being outside?! Which would mean vitamin D3 in a supplement would be a bit of over kill since their body synthesizes it any way with the proper...
That would more than likely be it then. I'll see if I can dig up a picture for everyone here. As those who haven't seen one might be curious what it looks like. As far as how long it to come out of the roach... That is a trick question! and I didn't fall for it. She'll push it about 90% out most...
It greatly varies depending on temperature, but I would expect 5 to 6 weeks.
Be sure not to disturb the females any more than needed when they are making the egg sack or she may get stressed and abort it.

No, I don't think you've missed anything there Heika. It is an interesting site to see for anyone if it's their first time witnessing it. Here is a pic of some Blaptica Dubia mating if it interest anyone.
Kalibr03, I have started what is I believe to be one of the most comprehensive care sheets on that roach available. I've been breeding them for about 2 years now. They are ideal if you are looking for a smaller species of roach to keep or breed.
here is the direct link to my care sheet which...
I already mentioned what temps I keep them. In my previous post I stated I am currently keeping them between 93 to 96 degrees Fahrenheit (translated equals approximately 33.9 to 35.6 degrees Celsius). Im not looking to get into a debate or argument of any sorts, Just stating a factual and honest...
