Default Lobster Roaches **New Price**

These have been provisionally sold !

OK gutted to be doing this but my colony of lobster roaches needs to be sold. Moving house and there is no way on earth I'm going to be able to keep them. I only kept them to breed on myself cause they are well interesting, was then going to sell a few on as well. Oringinally I bought them to breed on and feed my 4 bearded dragons, but since then these have been sold as well

They were bought from Rickeeze as a colony of 300. There are now way more than 300, probably well over 500 tbh plus the fact I can see females carrying egg sacks ! Therefore I'm looking for (New Price) ***£40*** for the lot. Postage will be £8 because they are going to require 2 boxes I think.

Remember this is a full on breeding colony, if you bought 300 now it would take a good few months for them to reach correct size etc so this really is a bargin !

Thanks
Gaz

PS The pic' below is an old one. There in a bigger tub now as they were a bit cramped. I'll get more picture tonight

cheers dude...

Imagine the amount you spend on crickets ? I used to spend 30 quid a month on my 4 this colony would have saved me that. They actually breed that quickly at certain sizes you'll never need crix again. Plus nutritional wise these are better !

What would you send them in? Something they can live in? Or would I have to sort out a home for them?

Bascially get a plastic storage tub.. you can get them for like 4 quid, which is probably cheaper than the postage of sending the one i have above. Take a look at the pictures you can see. The rims are basically lashed with vasiline to stop them climbing out.

The actual roaches I would box up in normal crickets tubs. I have hundreds of them... The would actually live in these for a fair number of weeks as long as ou privided them with food of which I use wetabix and some veg for moistures - carrots are a favourite
