Re: What nightmares are made of...
I have to admit, Roaches fascinate me for some reason. Does that make me weird?

Re: What nightmares are made of...
I had a pet hissing roach, until it drowned itself.
I think that the giant hissing roaches are really neat, and I'll get another at the next reptile show, but this next one will get water via a sponge in his dish, and not just water in a shallow dish.

Re: What nightmares are made of...
That's a great price. Online they are about $50 for that many I think. You can find private breeders with extra that well them cheap though

Starts literally jumping up and down, nose to the glass, walking on his back legs. You'd think I starve him the way he acts.

vid, now.
I should start a roach colony so when I finally do have something that can eat them I've got plenty. What's their life span?

Neat video. Kind of Fear Factor-ish. LOL Thanks for sharing.

Re: What nightmares are made of...
The 1000ish roaches were 80$, but they were infested with fruit flies.
A few hours work and I can proudly say, out of the 100s of flies in the bin there are NONE flyin around. and all eggs have been disposed of.
Btw... any I the only one who noticed that randy is back?

YES we have a bunch of hissers! I absolutely adore them. All of them are quiet except one so I named him grumpy

Ill see what I can do about the video right away. Its pretty damn cute.
As for their life span, they live a good long time. It takes them about 4-6 months or so to mature and then they live for a further 18-24 months.
