Anyone in SE Michigan want roaches?

[chrismnc]

My beardie will not eat the roaches. They are reproducing like crazy and I don't know what to do with them. If you can pick them up, you can have most of them. I'll keep enough to breed again and see if he will eventually eat them. Bummed...

Would you ship them if someone paid for shipping.

 

[chrismnc]

Since I have no experience in doing that, I'd rather not. If I can not find someone to come get them, then I would consider it.

What kind of Roaches are they? Dubias? I may be interested then, I'm trying to get my Dubia colony going and could always use some extra's

How close are you to Toledo?

 

[chrismnc]

I am about 1 - 1 1/2 hour. Outside of toledo

 

[bubbagumper6]

And they are Dubia's? How many do you have?

 

[chrismnc]

I have NO idea! I started w 250+ in the fall and they just keep multiplying. They are happy little Dubias. Eating me out of house and home. They r kept in a closet on a heating pad and not disturbed except for feedings. They eat cricket chow, dog food, fish food, oranges and any other fruits I have. I use water gel for them and replentish it 3x a week.

Heh... there must be something in the air in SE Michigan, cause I have a ton too! I'm too lazy to count, but there is way more than a 2 month old BD can eat. I'm almost at the point where I need to get another container to keep them in.

It is pretty humid
