Feeding dozen plus pedes plus more on the way. I'm looking to raise a colony of my own, a species that breeds fast with a decent size. BTW no flyers and cheap too. I'l browsing doubleds.org so yeah

Ive had this happen more than once...... usually not TOO big a deal, as i prefer to see the T or Scorp get the food instead of leaving the Lobsters run loose.... just scoop up the few babies that make it out before she expires.....Dom said:I recently read that someone was feeding a lobster roach to his T and it had babies before being eaten. Another negative as far as lobsters are concerned.
Price.james said:First I think size matters and if you have bigger pedes look for larger roaches. Blaptica dubia are my favorite, but the Blaberus fusca or hybrids do breed a little faster. For a smaller roach I still question why people recommend lobsters over lateralis. Same size, breed just as fast, with no climbing. The cuban roaches are very cool, but they are average breeders. The rothi do get very heavy and wide as adults.
