Which one?
I've been trying to find a decent roach for a decent price for a while now, and it seems as htough Kelly Swift has the best selection for the price.
So which should I go with? Lobster Roach (Nauphoeta cinerea) or Surinam Roaches (Pycnoscelus surinamensis)?
I realize Lobster Roaches are the most popular, but being different is kind of nice, too.
The big advantage with the Suriname roaches is that (According to Swift's site), they're all female. As a breeding amature, htis sounds as though it's pretty easy to deal with. On the negative side, it says they like to hide under the dirt, too.
I'm wanting something as a tarantula feeder, and possibly a lizard feeder. (I've had bearded dragons in the past, but got rid of them due to the 35 - 39 minute drive to get Crickets.)
