    Incubation Data for Several Livebearers

    I've been taking data on several of my colonies to see which species produces babies first. What I've done is separated out a bunch of subadults of several species of Blaberid and allowed them to mature together. I recorded the date that the first female matures on (and if there aren't males...

    To Grind or Not to Grind- Powdered vs Pelleted Food Debate

    I've noticed that a lot of care sheets/guides have been urging the use of powdered food for roaches, incorporating as many as 12 different ingredients, some of them thrown in to appease what appears to be the desire to make our pet's/feeder's diets match some idealized human "health kick." Roth...

    Postultimate Molt

    It seems like every time I get a colony of Byrsotria sp. colony going, the first generation of babies always has some weird individuals pop up, like gynandromorphs or females with long wings. This time, an adult female Byrsotria cabrerai attempted a post ultimate molt. At first glance, it looks...

    Saturniid moths! :D

    These are my second favorite bugs. I absolutely adore the size, colors, and habits of the caterpillars. All you do is feed them and all they do is eat, poop, and grow! So cute! :D H. cecropia C. splendens sinaloensis A. io A. luna

    Ectobius pallidus

    Alright, this will be my third year trying to get babies from these guys. They are extremely common in the wild but have proved difficult to breed in captivity. I'll be setting them up like pseudomops with plenty of springtails to keep things clean. Any thoughts or suggestions? These will...

    First generation blues

    I've noticed that with some species of roach, it can be difficult, if not impossible, to get babies from your first set of adults. However, after the babies from this birthing(s) mature, the species will breed more easily or even faster. Has anyone else noticed this? So far this has happened...

    Blaberus craniifer debate- New evidence?

    So I was browsing the net and came across this picture of what appears to be a BROWN Blaberus craniifer. Morphologically, it has the build of black wing craniifer, as well as the pronotum pattern. As for its colors- well, obviously they're different from those of black wing craniifer...

    Isopod ID Thread

    I posted this on another forum but I figure it will be a worthy addition here too. :P Below are 8 species of sizable terrestrial isopod found in the eastern US. They can be found in many moist habitats, but some have their preferences. Although antennal segmentation and other characteristics...

    Best thing about the roach hobby?

    I've been perusing quite a few other invertebrate forums lately and I've got to say I think we have one of the most close-knit, well-informed communities out there. Sure, there aren't a lot of us, and we aren't posting every other day to say one of our pet hissers named Hissy decided to take a...

    Dorylaea orini ooths

    Has anyone else bred this species? I've had ooths for at least 2.5 months and no young yet. Temps are high (80-88) and very high humidity (minimum of 80). Could the high temps have killed the eggs or am I just impatient? :P
