Lobster roach colony for sale

emmini · #1 (**permalink**) 19-03-2008, 02:00 PM

I have a colony of Lobster Roaches which started off at 300 about 5 months ago. I've been keeping them on a small heatmat and they have been breeding all the time so there are probably close to 500/600 now. They are available in a large plastic lidded container (which has been vaselined round the top too). Would like around £40 for the lot - I think I paid around £35 for 300. Would prefer collection (approx 10 miles north of Portsmouth - PO

but could possibly post if required)
Ok, what's with the smiley face instead of a number in the postcode?!)

I'd have to keep them in there anyway - don't know how I'd post them otherwise! Will get back to you on postage when I finish work. Cheers

I had a 300 colony and after 3-4 months there were well over 1000 of them, most around the 2mil mark so you don't notice them much...

Anyway I had to sell, so I basically boxed them up in around 15 crickets tubs, packed them in a cardboard box with some newspaper... All arrived alive and crawlin think it was only around £5 to send but I had the boxes already...

Blimey, maybe there's 1000 in there then - there are millions of tiny weeny ones all the time, no bigger than a pin head, but I'm not going to start counting them!

What are Lobster Roaches for... Are they for feeding animals???...

emmini · #9 (**permalink**) 19-03-2008, 04:48 PM

Yes, I used them for feeding my bearded dragons, I don't know if you can feed them to other lizards, maybe someone else knows? I bought two colonies, one to feed off and the other to leave to multiply. Just finished the last lot and they' re not as well received as locusts so this lot have gotta go!

yeah these are great feeders for all lizards, just be wary that they can get to big for some
