Why you should use Lobster Roaches
They do not harbour diseases. They are 100% healthy and on comparison 100% better than crickets, reasons you ask?
1. they don’t smell
2.they breed faster yet can't infest.
3.they don’t chirp.
4.if you leave them in the viv they wont nibble on your animal.
5.they don’t die off as easily.
7.they eat anything
8.if they do get out, they will die in a matter of days, or go out side because they'd rather burrow in rotten logs.
9. their chitin rate is low, so you can be a bit over the size range and wont impact your animal as easily.
10. they are soft bodied and packed with protein
11. they are the best bug out there!!

They do climb but that is easily stopped by either just feeding them off straight from the tub they come in or if keeping them in a plastic tank etc just smear Vaseline around the rim that stops them dead in their tracks. I also sell red runners and Dubia but am holding back the dubia for a while. You think lobsters are fast try the red runners

i will deff be ordering some next payday (assuming you have a pretty constant supply?) if i buy 300 would i have to keep all 300 to start off the culture? or would i be able to feed some straight away? i am probably going to go through around 150 a week so i assume a 300 culture would be enough to sustain this?

I allways have a good supply of the roaches. If your going to culture them best to only feed a few off.
