It's terrible seeing them like that. Sorry for your upsetting experience.. It doesn't seem like any outside source could have induced their deaths, so don't doubt your husbandry. Please continue to keep and love roaches. :)

Firstly, I'd like to commend you on listing every single thing the roaches have been exposed to and the sources of each - it really helps paint a picture for us. The first thought I had was pesticide poisoning. These are all symptoms of nerve damage that many insects experience from pesticides...

NOOOO now I have to post more! Jk that makes me so happy tysm 😭 Wow yours look so vibrant and healthy! I don't have nearly that many adults so I don't get to see them like that much.

I literally just threw mine in filtered coco fiber with leaf litter lool

Welcome! Glad to have more roach people around. :)

When I first brought mine home I only had a handful of individuals and I remember seeing them snack on the apple bits I put in there so I do believe they surface from time to time! Like every other roach they'll be far more active in the dark/night time. You did??? I had no idea my website was...

Can't say I have not done the same :LOL:

Dude iphones have 3 cameras and not one of them will do what I want it to

That's a really great pick!! The downside is that you'll never see them unless you dig them up. :( I love love love how they look, but I rarely get to see mine. Still though, congrats!

Damn. They really are cool. But that price still isn't justified to me.

Interestingly since posting this, I've accumulated around twelve more species and I've had the chance to get Therea tons of times but passed it up, probably because I figured they were hard to keep? But now that you suggest them, I'll consider it! So far the species I've had the most joy with is...

Not long ago I asked about this exact expo in a discord server and got feedback from someone that used to attend it for decades. They said it's like this nowadays because of, surprise surprise, corruption and incompetence in the host organization. But they gave hope that it will likely turn...

Bought a starter colony of A. tesselata from her through discord and she was kind enough to ensure I received large nymphs! Price was standard for the species and she shipped 'em fast and was communicative. I bought 'em from her because she shared a photo of two of her adults having wildly...

Idk how you all do it. Very few times am I able to get a 'nice' shot of one of my specimens. I want to know how you guys go about photographing your bugs. I use my iphone14 plus which you'd think would be good enough, but most of the work is in the lighting, and unfortunately I can never get a...

It is a pretty massive difference. It could also be possible that there are not as many collectors over in the UK and therefore there's less demand. I also wish to have them, just to add to my collection. Eventually they'll go down in price here when more people get them in their collections.

Usually regional price differences are due to availability. There may be an abundance of them available over in the UK, whereas over here they may be more rare to come by.

That's so frustrating. Keeps in humidity good but exacerbates the process of molding. :/ I've been struggling to figure out how to hold air humidity in my enclosures. Like you, I mainly use stainless metal mesh, but even when poking small holes, the air humidity escapes pretty quickly. The only...

What a gloriously beautiful bastard

I don't know *exactly* what material it is because I got it with an enclosure I bought off of someone on FB marketplace. I assume it's a polyester mix of some sort. I'm not sure what material Kyle uses for his critter keepers and I've been wanting to know. Like Bhjjr said, freezing some...
