My favorites are my six spotted roaches, E distanti. Huge, winged, pet holes.

Euphyllodromia sp., because they are attractive and spunky.

hands down my fav is dubia, good feeders, and fun to play with when you're bored
i have a colony of 60 or so adult hissers, and they drive me nuts
when i try to sleep i hear them hissing, i have to put them in the hall ;P
I wish i could get my hands on some glow spots...

For me - Therea grandjeni, although they're nothing special until their final molt into adults. But - I can get people who view roaches as disgusting to admit that the Question Mark Roach is either pretty, or cool looking. :)

Feeders? Primarily B. dubia, but I like how lobsters and B. lateralis have small enough nymphs for my widow slings and baby bark scorpions (lobsters are easier to breed, B. lateralis don't climb glass -- but BOTH are too damn fast! :rolleyes:).

Pets? Probably my B. fusca 'cause they're so huge. :D Alas, I have no B. giganteus. :(

Of course, the hissers are always fun for the sake of hissing. :D (Except they distract the cat at night.)
