I don't want to feed flesh and cat kibble is high in protein. Do the adults also eat protein or do they eat vegetables and fruits?

I bring my hissers outside sometimes in a small area of my backyard to get some sun and run around. They ate plants on their own I never expected! Norway maple pollynoses (winged seed pods), Chickweed (invasive herb), and Crabgrass seed stems.

The captive bred hornworms raised on artificial diet take unusually long to shed their skin. I've seen a few 3 days not move and shed on the 4th day. You can tell they are ready to shed as the old head becomes clear and you can see the new black mandibles through it, also by the rear the skin...

I brought pre made hornworm chow from mulberry farms and ended up having extra. I was wondering if this was safe to feed to my hissing cockroaches?

I have my roaches in an aquarium glass tank. The sides have gotten really dirty and smelly so I'm doing a full cleaning. and hot water and scrubbing aren't enough. Is there something safe to use to clean better? I have antibacterial soap could that be ok if rinsed thoroughly?

I just brought this at toys r us, crickets will control and drive the car! http://www.bugracercar.com

Many popular feeder insects are tougher than you think! In my house we have an unfinished basement of concrete and sometimes we get small drops of water when it rains, our oil burner has dead insects under it, and our cats food and litterbox are down there. I've had mealworms escape. They...

One of the male hissers I raised since birth is 2 and he has always been the largest of the bunch. However it's strange because he is twice the size of the rest, and his abdomen has always been very large. He is fairly lazy but otherwise normal. Except eating, he always is hungry and devours...

One of the hissers I raised since birth died from an odd accident. In my cage I have a tiny, shallow water dish that's actually a plastic cover from can o crickets. Less than an inch of water, for a Hisser it's nearly nothing it can walk in the water safely. Well, I woke up and found one dead...

I was duped and the Carolina mantis ootheca I have ended up being the wrong species :( I am looking for multiple ootheca to hatch out and release, they are in New York but rare so I want to add to the population. The trouble is mantids hatch in June here, by then in the south the Carolina...

Found this article showing a wild deaths head roach http://www.backyardnature.net/yucatan/deadhead.htm

My roaches liked Figs and ate seeds without harm, dubia nibbled but hissers really enjoyed them.

2 1/2 years ago I happen to get a starving discoid nymph in a batch of dubia. I kept it and it grew up living with the dubia and was a male. Besides 6 month growing period they say they live for a year, mine ended up living 2 years as an adult and being male which normally live shorter than...

It would be nice if under username we see where the user lives, would make it easier for those who buy and also if people need i.d. for cockroach and seeing location helps.

Long story short, late august I rescued tiny tadpoles from a temporary pool that was drying up, the rest perished days later. Normally this time of year toads breed like eastern spadefoot, and sometimes fowlers toad or american toad. But I'm having trouble identifying mine can someone help its...

Got him from a petstore labeled as 'tiger hisser". He doesnt look like that to me. He is huge and his color is very odd.

I don't know if anyone followed the thread about the Hisser nymph living loose in my room for over a month. When he was re captured it was clear he was lacking nutrients and was 2 molts behind his siblings, he had occasional seizures possible from nutrition deficiency barely being alive. Well...
