here are some recent photos.
this roach is aprox 3 years old.

can you help me sex this one?









I feed them almost exclusively dried oak leaves.
have tried chestnut leaves too, but they didn't seem to like them

can't risk feed local eucalyptus.
too many reports on dead roaches that were fed eucalyptus spp from outside australia.

they do very well on oak.
quercus coccifera is also well accepted and aprreciated.
