Hi Guys! I have a lot of wild green bottle flies in my yard, but they are almost only by my dog's poop. I was wondering if some of these would be fine to feed to  some of my predatory insects. I just didn't know if they would be ok to feed to my insects since they sit on and eat my dog's poop...

Hi Everyone! I recently got some really cool roaches for my Birthday that I've been wanting for a while, Zebra roaches! Here are some really nice pictures I took of them! Hope you guys enjoy! http://allaboutinsec...-cockroach.html         

Hi everybody, here's some pictures of my very first adult Eurycotis lixa! :) http://allaboutinsectsblog.blogspot.com/2016/04/first-adult-hustler.html

I just received my first order from Kyle! I ordered the starter colony of E.decipiens, 2 P.saussurei, and 100 tropical pink springtails. Everything arrived alive and well, and I would not even have gotten any roaches today if Kyle wasn't kind enough to ship them sooner so that they could arrive...

Hi Guys! Here's some cool photos I got of a freshly molted Hustler roach in my colony :) http://allaboutinsectsblog.blogspot.com/2016/04/freshly-molted-hustler-roach.html

Interesting, my isopods will be creating a lot of that, since I collected about 35 P.scaber and C.convexus yesterday and added them to my A.vulgare enclosure! :D  

Thanks! :)  Yeah, it's funny I just pick them up and then they freeze, and tuck their legs in, one of them even does it for about 20 minutes if I keep holding it :D

Hi Guys! :) Here's my newest post I made today on my blog! It has some info and pictures on my tiny Polyphaga aegyptiaca nymphs! http://allaboutinsectsblog.blogspot.com/2016/04/polyphaga-aegyptiaca-egyptian-sand-roach.html

Hi Guys! Here's a blog post I made earlier this week to have a couple of my darkling beetles identified. I had them successfully identified and thought this would be helpful for anyone else who has these darkling species and has yet to get an I.D for them...

Hi Everyone! Here's some nice pictures and info on my beautiful A.verrucosus :)  Hope you guys enjoy! http://allaboutinsectsblog.blogspot.com/2016/04/blue-death-feigning-beetles-asbolus.html

Hey Everybody :) Here's some pictures and info on my E.lixa! http://allaboutinsectsblog.blogspot.com/2016/04/eurycotis-lixa-aka-hustler-roach.html

Thanks! I ended up using just some coconut fiber, sterilized decaying wood, and dead leaves, but I definitely will consider trying that one of these times! :)

Very cool :) , I love the flat rock scorpions, might get one someday.

Awesome! :) I really like the Ligidium elrodii, they have really nice cryptic coloration and body shape!

Cool! Thanks for the advice! :)

Yea, that was the reason I though they needed the soil because I saw Peters substrate, great to know they don't need it! My bad, I meant Armadillidium vulgare, I also found one white sow bug with black and white striped antennae which I had only seen one other time in my yard.

Hi Guys! I caught some cool A.vulgare, and wanted to keep them but I only have coconut fiber and I know they should primarily have soil. I wanted to know if I can use coconut fiber in place of the soil because I have a bit of coconut fiber but don't have any soil. I would of course mix in some...

One time I had an L2 Chinese nymph and when we found it was sitting on the wall..

Yep, they're weird! :D

I also appear to have a pair of E.dentipes, I only put a picture of one of them because they basically look exactly the same except one is a little larger. They have interesting behavior, one of them just appears to sit on top of the others back for hours even though they aren't breeding, don't...
