    Cockroaches OTHER than B. dubia and G. portentosa?

    I keep Blaberus giganteus and they are really cool. No smell!

    Entomology project- please help!

    Yes, it's so easy to forget all the little Diptera. I have been really bad about that. The building idea is a great one. And I am doing a project in a greenhouse right now! Great idea.

    Entomology project- please help!

    Yes! I actually went out today and got a ton of wasps, various orthoptera and hemiptera. I'll post a picture of some of the cooler stuff later. :) Thanks for the advice!

    Entomology project- please help!

    Awesome! I'll go through my collection and let you know what I have. I for sure have adult male and female Giant Cave Roaches.

    Entomology project- please help!

    I've collected a few hundred samples representing roughly a hundred species on my own, but you're right, it is a bad time to be looking. I was hoping people from warmer areas would have better luck, or that people who breed insects professionally would be willing to part with the carcasses for...

    Entomology project- please help!

    Hello! I am currently a student at the University of Missouri studying entomology. I need different species of insects for my collection, and I know some of you keep some amazing species! If anyone has any animals that have died recently and are fairly well preserved, I would like to buy them...

    This may not be a ball python forum but...

    Honestly, he doesn't look any different than any of my normal ball pythons. :/ Might be a dinker.

    Next reptile... ?

    You're not going to be able to breed tiger sals. It takes years and extremely commited projects, and even then captive breeding is incredibly uncommon. All the bloods I've ever worked with have been less than handle-able. Leachies are fun but incredibly expensive. I would go with a...

    Devastated

    Thank you everyone for your support. The "friend" has agreed to pay for the value of all animals lost, as well as return the money I paid them to house sit, and all I had to do was show up at his house with an officer in tow. Sometimes it pays to work in law enforcement. All of the surviving...

    Incoming freshman registration is staggered throughout the summer, but they have the session or two before school starts.

    Devastated

    I do because I'm transferring into the school. I had to be there for orientation, to meet my advisors, get my ID printed, etc. Thanks for the support, everyone. This person has animals, so I figured they'd understand that they don't respond well to neglect.

    Devastated

    My T's were most definitely not on their way to death before I left. I keep my T's and reptiles in separate rooms. I don't have central air in my house, so my T room can reach over 100 degrees in my house the day time. I have fans set up to cool them off during the day, but they need to be...

    Devastated

    I left last week to register for classes for the fall semester and I paid some friends to take care of my critters while I was gone. I wrote out detailed instruction sheets for every single animal and left money and equipment. I came home tonight and half of my collection is dead. Not just...

    Awesome! I just have one normal, but they're my favorite gecko.

    New Cal Kings need names.

    I bought a breeding trio of California King Snakes for $80 today. Looks like a banded, an aberrant and a costal. They do need names, so I'm taking suggestions. The banded is the male.

    "Wild" cat most appropriate for being a "pet"...

    It doesn't make sense TO YOU. If that's what makes them happy, that's what makes them happy. I don't understand why people play golf. Doesn't mean they're stupid, it means I just don't play golf.

    "Wild" cat most appropriate for being a "pet"...

    Exactly. If it's not your hobby today, it will be tomorrow. For the record, I just want to say that I used the gun example as an example. My mother was invited to the Olympics in the '80's for rifle marksmanship and I shoot a longbow competitively, so I'm very gun friendly. We're both...

    "Wild" cat most appropriate for being a "pet"...

    I was coming home from a party late one night and I had my pit bull with me, as I almost always do. As I was walking from my car to my front door, I noticed four men breaking into my neighbor's house. They saw me and came running towards me, screaming. Gimli, who is a 40 pound snuggle muffin...

    I love this guy. He's kind of mean though.

    The prettiest boa

    Thanks! I've never seen those star shaped pupils before. They're kind of trippy. :P
