Hey guys,
This is my first time posting on the Insect board. I'm normally just arachnids, but I have a question some of the more knowledgeable on here may know.
I recentely took a trip to Tampa, FL and my brother and I went collecting one of the days we were down there. We found some awesome orb weavers an stick insects, but I found about 5 adult roaches I've definately identified as E. floridana. I'm just curious how this species does as feeders? I read about their odor. Personally, I don't find it that bad...but I'm not eating them. Are these worth keeping and breeding?
I'm extremely new to roaches as feeders, so any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
