Blaberus discoidalis

Petastic

Second Instar
So after some contemplating, I've decided to breed discoids. I'm basically asking for care requirements, ease of care, speed of breeding, how your experience with the species has been, etc. I'm going to order from aaronpauling.com - 350 mixed discoids for 92 shipped. Not too bad compared to other sites. Is that a good starting number?

 
basically the same care as Dubai though thay are a bigger roach and it will take some time before thay start breading, but once thay get going thay are a steady source of nymphs and with 350 you shouldn't have a problem.

Make sure what you're getting is pure.

Aaron Pauling does male trades people; one of the people he did male trades with had hybrid B. discoidalis x B. boliviensis. If you're just getting them as feeders there aren't any detrimental effects to using hybrids but just be leery of what you're getting.
