yeah, i was told that already and i'm much more convinced that it is now.. weird how that went unnoticed

seems plausible, but i don't know if it explains the strange pattern in the center of it

it's completely hard, i tried to get it off with toilet paper. i don't think i've seen it at all before.

i see.

i have no idea what the humidity is in my room since i dont have a hygrometer for that, im sorry. yes it is. this is the ZooMed brand repitsoil+coco fiber+sphagnum moss mix i've been using ever since i started keeping roaches.

i have tried plastic wrap over my screen lid with a 1 inch strip for ventilation on the hot side which did not work. this only increased heat, raising it to 28 C/85 F while the heat mat is off (it kept heating up to over 35f, so i have to keep plugging in and unplugging it. i could buy a...

okay, now what the heck is coming out of the other female?? its black and shes slightly pulsing?? edit, she moved and its now closed up. is she going to give birth?

thank you, im glad she will most likely be okay

12 gal, cocofiber, reptibark and sphagnum moss substrate mix, cork bark, and oak leaf litter. the napkin will be removed when they start moving. the wires for the thermometers might be an issue but i’m not sure, please let me know about anything wrong! i’m afraid they might chew on the wires or...

he has his butt in the air and when he pushes the others he hisses a lot. i think he’s definitely mad.. i knew males were aggressive, but i didn’t think my first male would be THIS mean LOL

i just purchased new gromphadorhina portentosas (2 females, 1 male, 2 nymphs. none fully grown.) and im very excited about it, but.. the one male has very short antennae, presumably from some fights. is this an immediate concern? one is very short, the other even shorter. his coordination seems...

this is definitely a very silly, paranoid post.. but i just care a lot about these cockroaches. my two cats have to have flea medicine put on the back of their neck monthly, it smells very skunk-y and in return makes them and everything they lie on smell like it too. since lingering chemical...
