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.

Holy crap...these roaches won't stop breeding!
I just bought 1000 lobster roaches about 2 weeks ago. I just poped the top to add some water and check on them and found the water dish to be SWARMING with new babies! Sort of makes my skin crawl (but I am also gigling like a little school girl because I won't have to buy any more feeders)!!!
When y'all said lobsters are prolific you weren't kidding!

LOL. Welcome to the roach club. Guess what? They are just going to keep multiplying at that incredible rate. Now you know it’s time to get more leos. So have you fed any yet?

roaches
Good to Hear! I just ordered 200 roaches in hopes that they will multipy. I am done with crickets. What do you keep them in? Do you have to put vaseline at the top so they don't crawl out?

Don’t worry Suzanne they’ll multiply.
I keep all my roaches in Rubbermaid tubs. It’s the easiest way. The lobster roaches do climb and I use bug stop to contain them. One problem now is bug stop is no longer being produced. I have enough bug stop for several more months but I’ll have to find a replacement product, what I’m not sure.

Cody, try the vaseline, so far for me it works well. The roaches actually don't even bother climbing the sides anymore because it seems they have learned they can't get past it.

Shannan,
I’ve never tried Vaseline but it seems very messy to me. I’ve also heard of people using Crisco. I don’t know how well that works but I think I’ll go try that right now…

Anything will eat lobster roaches so feeding them to your dragon and crested gecko won’t be a problem. It’s just like feeding crickets.

Hey Shannan I just tried the Crisco. To my surprise it worked pretty well however it can get a little messy. Since it is grease it stays moist and doesn’t wipe off the greatest. I guess it’s another option though. I’ll have to try the Vaseline next.
