    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I've got two massive colonies of roaches I need to get rid of. The first are dubia roaches - I separated out the adult females (what really counts in establishing a colony) and I had 252 (there are actually more, but I was sick of counting after 250 but I saw 2 more at the top). There must be about half as many adult males (I feed them off at about 2 a day). Then there are easily over 1000 nymphs. I put the container (without the females) on a scale and it weighed over 10 lbs. There is some frass, and the weight of the plastic bin, but that's still one heck of a lot of roaches.

I also have a huge colony of thousands of Turkistan roaches (blatta lateralis)(Rusty Reds)(Red Runners) The whole bottom of the cage is also filled w egg cases. I've also been feeding lots of the adult males so it is primarily females.

It's been amazing to not have to buy crickets for many months, but alas I'm moving overseas and can't bring these with me.

I'm from the Cleveland, Ohio and will be at the Reptile show next weekend

$150 for the Dubia
$75 for the Turkistan

Attached are pictures of the adult Dubia females separated, the rest of the colony w/o egg cartons, and lastly the lateralis colony(one of 6 egg cartons)
