Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

ATTENTION PLEASE!
That is it, i have had it! Dubia Roaches are becoming more popular but people who keep them are becoming criticized for it by family and friends, i no this because it has happened to me and i have only had mine for a week. This is why I propose to change the name to something more appealing. People automatically assume the worst and think of horrible disease ridden disgusting house infesting bugs that will eat you out of house and home. The name i propose is "Armour Crickets" because of there shell like appearance during there nymph stage. So hear me all Blaptica dubia, or the Guyana Orange Spotted Roach (common name). Should and will be known by me and all that no of my feeder colony as, ARMOUR CRICKETS.
thank you for your time.

And call me crazy, but I would've thought the name Annabella was a dead give-away!

Question
Here in the US, is it okay if we call them 'armor crickets' instead of 'armour crickets'? I guess it's laziness, but we leave the 'u' out of many words (colour, flavour, etc.)
I also propose:
Armo(u)r Cricket Lovers Union (ACLU)

I just find it comedy that they're called "Dubias"
(I'm republican, just the 1850's republican)
