Goblin Roaches

Description

Paratemnopteryx couloniana do not burrow and only adults are able to climb, weakly. Goblin roaches drop egg cases in the substrate. The species is reddish with enlarged cricket-like back legs. I actually saw one leap off the end of my finger. I need to take a video! It’s not easy to get them to jump, but they can sort of do it in a downward direction. I don’t think our pet leopard gecko can tell the difference between these and crickets.

These are sold currently as verrry small nymphs for $2 each.

Roaches love jelly products which are healthy, clean, don’t spoil and don’t attract pests or mold like rotting fruit sometimes does, particulary during warmer months of the year. I also offer mine fish food pellets in small amounts for protein and other nutrients. These small pellets disappear quickly and prevent attraction of mites, etc. Subtrate in your roach tank provides both nutrition and humidity for your pets. My roach care sheet is located here.

Sorry, no shipping to Florida.
