I have them, but they can take up to 2 years to reach adulthood

Wow thats a loooong time. They breed fast though?

Yeah once they're adults they should lay a lot of ooths. Takes them a few months to hatch. The nymphs are soooo tiny too. Like the size of an ant.

I just got a starter colony of Chrome and Shadow roaches, and also some Giant Canyon isopods. Everything arrived in a couple of days, was well packaged, and there were lots of insects of different sizes and ages! He was very patient with all my questions, and the pricing was great too! Definitely recommend it!

Death heads are awesome IMO. They are like discoids that look much cooler. Jet black wings and the face on the back

 

[jamest0o0]

Very active too!

@jamest0o0 is this a murder hornet aka Vespa mandarinia, Found it yesterday dead in my driveway, then later in the day I saw a live one. In the picture it’s laying inside a canning jar ring.

Hahaha I can imagine, I remember we talked about giant cave roaches. I have several adults in a huge bio bin, but waiting to see some nymphs. Now that is a fun roach to scare people with, wings make them look almost the size of your hand. Wide horn hissers get pretty massive too.

Tbh I'm not very familiar with mud Hornets other than looking them up a few times. I've never seen them around here, but they usually seem to have slender bodies, this guy looks more full? No?

Yeah this guy is pretty plump, the live one I saw was almost as big as a hummingbird! I’m going to try to catch one if I see another.

Could it be a cicada killer?

 

[Reptofreak]

Yep you nailed it!

 

[jamest0o0]

Yep you nailed it!

Apparently they're pretty docile with people other than looking terrifying lol.

Updated some info on the climbing/flying abilities of each species listed. Going to post some new species soon as well.
