Funny Story & Canadian Roaches

[Treehorn]

I ordered some Dubia from forum member Little D and he shipped them to me by Canada Post Expidited to my small office. So yesterday the postal lady shows up with the box a little freeked out and asked whats in the box because she had been driving around with them in her car all day and could here something moving in the box.

I told her they were cockroaches and she jumped through the roof. She ran out the door and rand a couple laps around the parking lot screaming and shaking her arms. She turned to me and said, “You can’t do that to me, I’m a girl you know”. It was quite a laugh.

Anyway I took them home last night and what I got was really good value for what I paid. Lots of breeding adults as promised and he threw in a bunch of babies for free. I recommend sending a PM to Little D if you’re in Canada and looking for Dubia. Great deal!

Similar story. I ordered from geckoboy, and told my babystitter at home that I would receive a package by Purolator. I told her it was roaches, to add to my small colony, so it was better that she does not open the package. When the puro guy came, he asked why she barely touched the package and did not what to open it to make sure everything was fine. She told him it was roaches, and showed him my colony (in fact my 4 year-old daughter did). He started freaking out, saying it's better if he doesn't know what he's carrying!

I also ordered in the past from little D and I was pleased with the roaches he sent me!

I was hoping I could get Little D's contact information. I hope you still check this forum also I hope this guy is still in business.

PuffMagic, I've sent you a pm. Sorry for not seeing this sooner!

The postal service has tightened up a little bit and now want the packages clearly marked that there are insects in them. Maybe this will keep from freaking out some of the delivery people........lol
