Wow! Great photos! Did you raise these guys yourself or are they wild caught? They're beautiful.

I had some for a while but they never laid any eggs for me.
Might try again one day. It takes a long time for them to go from grub to beetle but it would be worth the wait.
The pic is of a glow spot roach. I do keep a few and I think they're great. They burrow but usually up against the glass so I can still observe them. I haven't dug them up in a while because I'm hoping they will breed. They're really pretty roaches.
