Roaches

Second Instar
Hi all,

Here some pictures of how I keep my roaches. I hope you all like the pictures.

Your roaches do alright without much ventilation? Mine would not do so well in your type of enclosures, so I have screen vents on at least two sides and sometimes including the lid as well.

 
Hi Matt,

On this moment we have no problems I think because in every container we have small colonies of max 20 roaches.

 
Throw a futon in that room and it looks like where I sleep every night ;)

I bet it's hard for people to visit your office-zoo and go away thinking that roaches are dangerous, dirty animals.

I'm suddenly having a craving for an orange!

Wow thats a ton of roach cages!

I'm the same way with my wasps, tons of cages. But unfortunately they need good sunlight so I can't keep them nice and neat on shelves like your roaches :)

 
I just seen the room, so sorry for the late reply, I like your setup, how many species do u keep? whats your fav? and what kind of containers are they?

Very nice and neat! My roach room used to look similar. Its a good set up to have the PC there, but you may run into trouble when your colonies get larger. Not just with the containers themselves (i notice tupperware for me without any screens tend to get very moist very fast).
