:Has anyone here ever ordered roaches from Mike Stefani from the classifieds? I have been considering buying a large colony of lobster roaches to both feed to my dragons and breed in order to have a constant supply. I would like to order them from someone "reputeable" in hopes of getting healthier roaches who are hopefully free of parasites and mites!

:Also are there any cons to choosing lobster roaches over orange heads and hissing roaches? Those are the 3 I decided to choose from. Again I will be feeding these to my bearded dragons. Also would anyone happen to know of a site where a nutritional analysis was done on lobster roaches? I havent been able to find one, probably isnt one. Thanks, LM


Well, I have lobsters on the way and due to arrive tomorrow. I know that Mike is supposed to be 'the guy' and that is why I went with him. He is also one of the least expensive.
I would imagine that of roaches lobsters are the most practical for BDs as they range in a better size for them. Hissers reproduce less and are big and harsh...fine for my monitor but they can't keep up with her appetite. I was looking for variety and a way to relieve some of my need for crix.
