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.

How many roaches can a leo eat?
How many lobster roaches do your leos eat in one session?
I'm still trying to let my colony grow, so I'm only feeding them sparingly to my leos. The most I've ever given any leo was 3 or 4 adult roaches as a treat, but I stopped before they would refuse and waste a roach. It looked like they would've kept on eating them though. Even the leos that never come out to chase their prey went nuts running around the tank.
I actually had a couple roaches get out because I accidentally dropped the egg carton they were on. I managed to catch one before it had time to collect its wits, but the other crawled under my leo's tank. Luckily I was able to lure it out with a vegetable, but yeesh, it was so nerve-wrecking. Good thing my mom didn't find out.

I usually feed about 5 or 6 per gecko, babies and adults. I just use smaller or larger roaches to fit the size of the gecko. I try to only feed the nymphs not the adults as they are the producers. I started with 250 in late January and now I have several thousand, so they multiple very fast!
Bummer! At least you caught all the ones that got out. That would become a big deal if they started multiplying outside their containers.

Well, I try to pick the smaller adults hoping they're not female. Right now I have a TON of babies. I just need to wait for them to grow up. :P
