My son Gavin, who is 4.5 yrs old. Says, Daddy these are "GOOD" roaches!!!

Cool! So, I never did read which species they are.
I raise Blaptica Dubia's (Guyana Orange Spotted). I just finally got them spread out into three 58 qt sterilites so My colony can really start to grow. A year ago, I started with 8 or 10, and have a hundred or two now- and I have been feeding them to my leopard lizards and leopard geckos.
Funny how you are keeping them as pets. I had one walking on me the other day, and was thinking "man, these guys are neat!- it would be cool to make one a pet!"

Denis hates bugs, he's such a wimp!!

Propped up against the side of the tank at an 70-80 degree angle.
Make sure it's rough enough for them to grip!
